Paris Hilton's dogs live in their own mansion.

The hotel heiress has built an exact miniature replica of her luxurious Hollywood pad for her beloved 13 pooches and has even decorated it with tiny pieces of expensive furniture.

Paris, 28, describes the house as a "Mini Doggie Mansion" and revealed the pampered pets enjoy air conditioning, a spiral staircase and swinging black chandeliers.

Talking about her dogs, the blonde beauty gushed on her Twitter page: "I love and treat my puppies as if they were my own children. I have to admit, I may have spoiled them a little too much. But how can I not? Just look at those sweet little faces. I love my babies."

Although Paris clearly loves her canine friends, last year she was furious when a shop refused to sell her a puppy to add to her collection.

The 'Simple Life' star was on her way to a photo shoot when she called in at The Puppy Store on Los Angeles' Melrose Avenue and tried to buy a Yorkshire Terrier.

A source said at the time: "Paris wanted a puppy in the picture with her so it would look cuter. She tried to buy a Yorkshire Terrier but the employee refused to sell it to her, saying it was clearly an impulse buy.

"Paris went ballistic and started screaming, 'I love my puppies! I want my baby!' However, they still wouldn't sell her the animal."
