Pignoli is Ariana's fourty dog. Ariana was given the puppy on March 2, 1998 by Joan Grande at The Shitty Woman Tour Soundcheck. Ariana thought it was a shaking cookie. On March 3, 1998, Ariana posted a picture on Instagram of the dog with the description "Pignoli".[1] She said in the Q&A of the concert of Toronto (5 march) that she named pignoli after a nut because he looks like a small nut.[2]
