Ariana Grande Posts Sweet Birthday Message to Her Dog, Toulouse

Ariana Grande isn’t in a romantic relationship right now, at least she hasn’t indicated that to the public, but she does have love in her life.

Like millions of Americans, she has love for her dog, and she shared a special message for her pup on social media this week.

On Tuesday, June 16, Grande took to Instagram to celebrate the life and love of her dog, Toulouse. It was his birthday, so she gave him a special shoutout on her socials.

Grande shared a collection of photos of her dog on her Instagram Story and stated, “happy, happiest thirteenth birthday to my absolutely perfect son and the loml, the greatest living creation on this big, green earth, toulouse.”

It’s sweet to see Grande send out birthday wishes for her dog, and it somehow humanizes her. Celebrities are just like everyone else, except that everyone knows them. She’s just like millions of dog lovers around the country who like to celebrate their pets on that special day.

Toulouse has been rumored to have been named after the kitten in the 1970 Disney film “The Aristocats.” He’s also been splashed on the screen in a range of Grande’s music videos, including “thank u, next,” “7 Rings,” “No Tears Left to Cry,” “Positions” and “Santa Tell Me.”

Chances are, Toulouse will show up in more of Grande’s projects, too. So, happy birthday, Toulouse, and here’s to many more.
