'But there was certainly no expense spared after the woman, who identified herself only as Mrs Wang, ordered a convoy of 30 luxury cars to collect her and the black Tibetan Mastiff from the airport.'



If one of my children spent this much on a ****ing dog?:-5:-5:-5

Its like a child, its not something you can put a price on (imo)

If i were a millionaire like this woman then i doubt i would find the price excessive if the dog was exactly what i wanted.

She will be heartbroken as any owner would when losing their companion, money does not come into it.

True BC but I was thinking of all the rescue homes you could help with that kind of money.

Odie, i too have never had much money but imagine if you did, money was no object, its a small price to pay to a millionaire to have a companion who is devoted to them for no other reason than being with them. Dogs don't give a s h i t how much money you have, their love is unconditional.

Yes, if I had that much money, I would rather spend it on a dog than a big old diamond. Imagine if money was no object, what would we do with it?

Betty, you can go handbag shopping all you want now!

Here's a thought on the flip side.

To those of you with dogs, would you sell your dog for 350,000?



Your dogs priceless right? :sneaky:

We got Scully and a year later I wanted a companion for her. Mr O was dead against it but of course I won in the end :wah: I told him I would ask him a question exactly one year after I got my way and bought Mulder. I marked it on the calender and sure enough, exactly one year later, I asked him the question 'How much would you sell Mulder for?'
