Wealthy Indian dog lover S Sathish is a well-known dog breeder from Bengaluru, and owns more than 150 different breeds. The newest member of his pup family came with quite the price tag…
ADVERTISEMENTA wealthy Benhaluru-based dog enthusiast has made headlines today by buying the most expensive dog in the world.
S Sathish, 51, paid a staggering Rs 50 crore (around €5.3 million) for Cadabomb Okami, a rare “wolfdog” that is a cross between a wolf and a Caucasian Shepherd.
Not only is Cadabomb Okami the most expensive dog in the world, he is believed to be the first of his kind.
The wolfhound is 8 months old, stands at 30 inches tall, and already weighs 75 kg.
“I spent 50 million rupees on buying this pup because I am fond of dogs and like to own unique dogs and introduce them to India,” Sathish said, according to The Sun.
Indeed, this is not Sathish’s first extravagant purchase. Last year, he bought a chow-chow, which bears a striking resemblance to a Qinling panda, for €3 million.
A former breeder, he owns more than 150 different breeds, each rarer than the last.
“I employ six keepers and all my dogs are fed raw food,” he said. “The estate covers seven hectares, so they all have plenty of space to romp around.”
Sathish also claims that his canines have attracted huge crowds and people are eager to take selfies with them. He charges anywhere between €2,600 and €10,000 for a 30-minute to 5-hour appearance.
“I spent money on these dogs because they are rare. Besides, I get enough money because people are always curious to see them,” Sathish explained. “They take selfies and pictures. My dog and I get more attention than an actor at a movie screening! We both are crowd-pullers.”
