This Must-Watch Netflix Docuseries About the World’s Richest Dog Features Cults, Conspiracies and One Loaded Pup

It’s always baffling to us when we learn about pets and their massive net worths. For example, Taylor Swift’s cat is worth $97 million. Wild. So, imagine our continued surprise when we saw Netflix release the official trailer for their new documentary, Gunther’s Millions, which centers around the world’s richest dog.

Meet Gunther VI, a German shepherd and heir to his owner’s multi-million dollar fortune. The dog (who is now worth $400 million) was once owned by a very wealthy countess. And when she passed away, she gave all of her wealth to her pet.

The trailer starts with Gunther living a lavish lifestyle, from eating gourmet dog meals to residing in a beautiful mansion. At one point, we learn that the dog owns several properties overseas and a yacht. Oh, and did we mention that he has twenty-seven employees working for him?
