Joe Jonas asks for 12 puppies on tour rider

Singer-actor Joe Jonas likes to have a canine cuddle before his performances.

"I've had 12 puppies on the rider for a while. Every once in a while, a city will show up with 12 puppies," Jonas said on a radio station's chat show, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The "Just in love" hitmaker is currently touring Australia with his American pop rock band DNCE bandmate Cole Whittle and as a result he has put some popular snacks in his rider.

The 26-year-old enjoys indulging in chocolate biscuits, meat pies and some juicy hunks of meat from a steakhouse.
