Miley has many dogs but was almost left with one less after her little Beagle, Barbie – who she refers to as Little Dog – chewed through cables and got electrocuted

Miley Cyrus has revealed one of her pet dogs almost died after biting through cables and getting electrocuted on set of The Voice.

The 27-year-old chart-topping star has been a judge on the USA version of The Voice since 2016 – and her four-year-old beagle, Barbie, who she affectionately called “Little Dog”, gave her a huge scare on the current season.

Miley shared the traumatising story while appearing on US radio show Geena The Latina and Frankie V Morning Show on Friday.

The star explained that the crew of The Voice helplessly watched the pup get shocked with volts of electricity after biting through a cable – with no one able to help her in case they too got electrocuted.
