How Much Did The World’s Most Expensive Dog Sell For?

A multi-millionaire Coal Baron in China payed 10 million Chinese yuan (approximately £1million), today for his Red Tibetan Mastiff, or Hong Dong in Chinese….
The gorgeous puppy-dog, named “Big Splash”, has an appetite to match its price-tag as well….
At the tender age of 11-months it weighs around 180lbs, and won’t think twice at wolfing down bowlfuls of fresh beef and chicken everyday, topped up with cod-liver-oil and raw bones to keep his teeth in excellent condition….
The Red Tibetan Mastiff, Big Splash, was bred by Mr Lu Liang who said:
“He is a perfect specimen.
“He has excellent genes and will be a good breeding dog.
“When I started in this business, ten years ago, I never thought we would see such a price tag.”
Tibetan mastiffs are considered by many Chinese to be a holy animal and have been used for generations to guard flocks of sheep, villages and temples in Tibet…
They are incredibly powerful animals and have been known to tackle predators as big as Wolves and Leopards…
All this has helped to increase their massive price tags, and made them a popular status symbol for the rich and famous…
