Big Splash is World's Most Expensive Dog

Aside from jewelries, gadgets and fancy cars, rare dog breeds have also become a status symbol signifying  a pet owner's whopping bank account. But to some, it may be more about the good ol' feng shui belief just like when a coal baron from North China purchased a very rare Red Tibetan Mastiff named Big Splash (Hong Dong in Chinese) for an expensive price tag of $1.5 Million, making this red gem the world's most expensive dog.

Tibetans believe the dogs to be holy, possessing the souls of monks and nuns who failed to be reincarnated or did not enter the heavenly realm. Many believe that Tibetan Mastiffs provide their owners with blessings of health and security. And with red to be considered a lucky colour, the new owner could easily earn a handsome sum by using Big Splash as a stud dog.
