Money can't buy happiness? 5 most expensive dog breeds in the world (6 photos)
People have developed many dog breeds to suit every taste: large and small, fluffy and shaggy, plump and thin. But regardless of appearance, all dogs are distinguished by their devotion to humans. True, for some you will have to pay a hefty amount.

Chongqing
Dogs of this breed are common in Asian countries. Chongqing dogs are also called Chinese bulldogs. They have short hair and a small but thick tail. Strong paws, a large body and a flattened muzzle - they are very reminiscent of our boxers. Initially, these dogs were bred to protect the home and to help the owner on the hunt. Nowadays these dogs are more often adopted as companions.
Dogs of this breed are calm, but require special training during puppyhood.
Cost: 2000-3000 dollars
Akita Inu
Thanks to the movie "Hachiko", dogs of this breed are very popular all over the world. Akita Inu puppies are energetic, loving in life, and loyal. They will make excellent friends for adults, but may be wary of children. Dogs of this breed require a lot of attention. They cannot stand loneliness and are very sad without their owner. In addition, the Akita will have to be walked at least three times a day - the dogs are very active and require physical activity.
Cost: 3000-3500 dollars
Tibetan mastiff
Another breed comes from China. These huge dogs are excellent guards and protectors. Males of this breed reach up to 65 cm in height and can weigh 70 kg.

Pomsky
Pomsky is one of the recently developed dog breeds. These are tiny dogs that look like a cross between a Pomeranian and a Husky.

Maltipoo
Tiny Maltipoo dogs are the cutest dogs in the world, more like toys. Thanks to this, they have become the most popular dogs among celebrities and because of this they suffer a lot.

Any stress can harm them. They are also called porcelain dogs.
These dogs are very devoted to their owners, and from long separation the Maltipoo can even become depressed.

When choosing a dog, many owners first of all pay attention to the appearance, and then to the qualities of the breed. Unfortunately, this is not the right approach. It is clear that having a wolfhound in a one-room apartment is not the best idea, but in addition to appearance, it is worth paying attention to the breed characteristics. For example, there are dogs that are not suitable for families with children or those that find it difficult to live in an apartment. When choosing a dog, first study the characteristics of the breed.
