Miley sings to doll after pet's death

Miley Cyrus has broken down in tears on stage while singing to a giant blow-up replica of her dog, Floyd, who was killed by a coyote last week.

The 21-year-old singer unveiled the unusual tribute to her dog while performing in Brooklyn, New York, as part of her Bangerz tour.

To honour the two-year-old pup killed on April 1, Cyrus sang a heartfelt rendition of her hit Can't Be Tamed to the 18m high replica.

In video of the performance, a weeping Cyrus can be seen on her knees with her head up against the replica of Floyd's paw.

She was so overcome with emotion during the song that she had to briefly stop to regain her composure.

The singer's mother, Tish, has attempted to try and ease her pain by buying her a new puppy, Moonie.
