Drew Barrymore and Justin Long are planning to adopt a puppy.

The couple - who started dating after meeting on the set of 'He's Just Not That Into You' last year - plan to show their commitment to one another by rescuing an unwanted pooch.

A source said: "They don't want a bratty little beast of a dog. They want a mix of a yellow Labrador Retriever and German Shepherd, a mutt that they can rescue."

Drew, 33, has been busy showing her compassionate side of late.

On Monday, the 'Charlie's Angels' actress - who has worked with the World Food Program (WFP) since 2005 and became an Ambassador Against Hunger last year - revealed she is donating $1 million to feed African children.

Drew told chat show host Oprah Winfrey: "I have seen with my own eyes what a difference a simple cup of nutritious porridge can make in a child's life. It helps them learn, stay healthy and sets them on track for a bright future."

On the same show, Justin, 29, also revealed Drew's big heart was one of the reasons he fell in love with her.

When Oprah asked him what he liked about the actress, Justin replied: "She smells good. She's beautiful and funny. And she is the most compassionate person I've ever met."
