Can't buy love. Can't buy happiness. But you can buy a best friend- man's best friend that is- for a cool $1.5 million. A multimillionaire coal baron in China just shelled that out for what is considered the long-reigning world's most expensive dog - a red Tibetan Mastiff.
Anchor 1: "They are rarely found outside of Tibet giving them exclusivity that other breeds cannot match. But I mean, It almost looks like a cartoon."
Anchor 2: "It is a beautiful dog. I like how it is so quaff or so to speak."
Anchor 3: For 1.5 - "It had better do it's own hair. No kidding."

That particular Tibetan Mastiff is 180 pounds and still growing. His dietary needs consist of chicken and beef - with delicacies like sea cucumber and abalone. According to The Telegraph...
"They are reportedly one of the oldest and fiercest breeds in the world. According to legend, both Genghis Khan and Budda had them..."
The Telegraph also quotes the breeder who sold the million-and-a-half-dollar pup, Big Splash.
"As a male dog, he can be hired out to other breeders for as much as 100,000 yuan a shot. [The seller] could recoup his money in just a couple of years."
A writer for The Huffington Post asks the obvious question- is the big money spent on Big Splash justifiable?
"With so many dogs around the world lacking homes and being euthanized in shelters as a result, is it acceptable to place such a high price on a single dog? Or should certain breeds be preserved and considered more valuable than others?"
And NowPublic interviewed a veterinarian who says- the dog may be a status symbol, but it's also a living creature.
"The obsession is unhealthy for the dogs themselves, which require more exercise and training than their status-conscious owners are willing to provide. Owners ...are unprepared or unwilling to properly exercise and care for the giant dogs."
But according to a bloger for The Stir- the red Tibetan Mastiff is more than just a status symbol. Big Splash's new millionaire owner is now one step closer to the afterlife.
"Tibetan Mastiffs are thought to be reincarnated nuns and monks, which makes Big Splash one big holy dog...When you look at it that way, the price isn't so ridiculous, really. How much is the health and security of your family worth? It's priceless, right?"
Big Splahs's breeder called him quote "the perfect specimen"- but what do you think?

這尤其藏獒是180磅，仍然在增長。他的飲食需要包括雞肉和牛肉 - 與美食如海參，鮑魚。據每日電訊報 ...
“據說他們是一個最古老和最激烈的品種在世界上。據傳說，成吉思汗和佛祖都讓他們 ...”
每日電訊報還援引飼養員誰賣的萬和半美元的小狗，大展宏圖。
“作為一個男性的狗，他能進給其他育種者多達 10萬元出手。[賣方]可以收回他的錢只是一對夫婦的年。”
一個作家，The Huffington Post的要求明顯的問題，是大花的錢，就引起轟動合理呢？
“這麼多世界各地的狗缺乏家庭和收容所被安樂死作為一個結果，是可以接受把這麼高的價格在一個單一的狗，還是應該保留一定的品種，並認為比其他人更有價值？”
和NowPublic誰採訪了獸醫說，狗可能是一種身份的象徵，但它也是一個活生生的動物。
“的痴迷，是不健康的狗本身，這需要更多的鍛煉和訓練比他們的地位，自覺業主願意提供。業主 ...沒有準備或不願正確行使和關懷巨大的狗。”
但據該部落格間透過對炒紅藏獒不僅僅是一種身份的象徵。大展宏圖的新的百萬富翁所有者現在更接近了一步來世。
“藏獒被認為是轉世修女和僧侶，使飛濺一大聖地大狗...當你看到這樣的說法，價格也不是太荒謬了，真的。多少錢是你的健康和安全家庭價值？這是無價的，對不對？“
