The Gunthers – The Incredible Story of the World’s Richest Dog Dynasty
The world is full of pampered pets, but while some depend on their owners wealth, a lucky few have their own fortunes. And no animal is as wealthy as Gunther IV, a beautiful German shepherd and member of the world’s richest dog dynasty.
It’s hard to imagine any animal being the beneficiary of a fortune of nearly $400 million, but such a lucky pet actually exists. Gunther IV, a descendant of Gunther II, the original world’s wealthiest animal, is worth a reported $375 million. He lives in a multi-million-dollar mansion in Miami, has a full staff looking after him, included his own maid and butler, spends his days playing and swimming, and eats only the finest food money can buy, including caviar and truffles. Gunther also has his own corporation, whose employees manage his assets and make sure the dynasty’s fortune keeps growing.
Man Leaves Millions to His Dog
A Tennessee man has left $5 million to his beloved four-legged friend, Lulu.
The millionaire dog club just added a new member to its pack - Lulu, a border collie. Lulu is the latest K-9 to hit the millionaire mark after her owner, Bill Dorris, passed away late last year.
According to a report from WTVF shared by our partners at KWTX, Bill s will read, “Five million dollars will be transferred to a trust to be formed upon my death for the care of my border collie, Lulu.”
Bill Dorris did a lot of traveling for his job, so his trusty border collie was taken care of by Marth Burton while he was away. Martha had been taking care of the dog for years and always made sure Lulu was kept happy and had company when Bill was away.
