Big Splash

You can't put a price on the love your pet gives.  But how much would you pay for puppy love?

The most expensive dog in the world  was sold in March of 2011 to a Chinese buyer for the price of 1.5 million usd.  It was a rare Tibetan Mastiff who was named "Big Splash".  He currently weighs 180 pounds and has a fluffy red coat of fur.

The Tibetan Mastif is considered one of the oldest breeds of dogs and it is rumored that both Buddah and Gengis Kahn owned one of them.  These furry dogs come from the mountain lands of Tibet, which explains all that crazy hair! They were supposed to be the guardians of the land of Tibet and protect it from invaders. The physical strength of this dog is enormous so monks gave them the position of guardians.

But no matter if you pay $ 1.5 million or get your dog from a Humane Society, the love they bring to your life is priceless.
