Bollywood actress Tanishaa Mukerji is not just a pet mom but a grandmom to six balls of fur! The ‘Neal 'n' Nikki’ star has grown up around canines given how her grandmother was a huge dog lover. “I've given birth to puppies in my bathroom,” she tells exclusively to mid-day.com

Tanishaa recalls, “I yelled at my mom when I was two, or three, from the time that I could talk that I wanted a puppy. I got my first dog and I named him Bimbo! And my mom was like, ‘She's not even old enough to know this word’. Bimbo bit everybody except me, and I loved it. He was a black Russian pomeranian. It was those days, you had to get the dogs imported. You didn't have them bred in India.”

Tanishaa has named her dogs after iconic movie characters. She has King Leonidas (Leo) from ‘300’ who is married to Princess Leia from ‘Star Wars’. They have two kids named Prince William and Prince Harry. Besides that Tanishaa is a mom to Tara from ‘Supergirl’ and Diana from ‘Wonder Woman’.
The actress asserts that having the dogs around makes a massive difference. She elaborates, “I love people, but I love the company of my dogs. I'm a very people person, but you know, dogs are unconditional love. They're just so honest. They're so real with you and I'm a very real person. I feel that's what I love about them. They bother you. They don't care how sad you are. They don't care if you're feeling low. If they want something, they will irritate you till you take them for a walk. Between a pet owner and a pet, I think it's the most honest relationship you can have.”
Amid the ongoing debate of dogs being mistreated by their owners, Tanishaa concludes, “My grandmother always told me, ‘Till you can learn to take care of the dog, please do not get a dog’. People are going around having dogs to satisfy some Instagram pictures and show off. Until you can take care of that dog and give them your best, please don't get one. It is as good as having a baby. Dogs are the babies that never grow up.”
