Bengaluru man buys world's most expensive 'wolfdog' for Rs 50 crore
Bengaluru: In an interesting display of luxury, a Bengaluru man has purchased the world’s most expensive wolfdog for a staggering Rs 50 crore ($5.7 million). The rare dog, named Cadabomb Okami, is a unique crossbreed between a wolf and a Caucasian Shepherd, and is believed to be the first of its kind.
Satish, a 51-year-old dog enthusiast, bought the 8-month-old pup in February. Satish, known for his collection of over 150 expensive dog breeds, revealed that the wolfdog was born in the United States and weighs around 75 kg, standing at a height of 30 inches, as reported by The Sun.
Satish, who also serves as the President of the Indian Dog Breeders Association, described the wolfdog as an extraordinary animal, saying, "He is an extremely rare breed of dog and looks exactly like a wolf. This breed has not been sold in the world before."
The dog has quickly become a sensation, with people flocking to take selfies and photos with the animal. Satish jokingly shared, "My dog and I get more attention than an actor at a movie screening, we both are crowd-pullers."
Satish, who has a penchant for owning unique dog breeds, stated that he bought the pup not only for his love of dogs but also to introduce such rare breeds to India.
He added that there is ample space for the dogs to roam freely, with a team of six people to care for them. Despite the city's relatively cool weather, the dogs are well looked after without the need for air conditioning.

Supreme Court judges' team arrives in Manipur's Imphal, to inaugurate legal aid clinics
Imphal (PTI): A delegation of Supreme Court judges arrived at the airport here on Saturday morning and is scheduled to visit people displaced due to ethnic violence in Manipur, officials said.
The top court delegation led by Justice B.R. Gavai was accorded a warm welcome by the lawyers' fraternity of the state at the airport.
The judges are scheduled to visit relief camps and virtually inaugurate legal services camps, legal aid clinics and temporary medical facilities from the Mini Secretariat in Churachandpur district around 10:40 am and later, they will go to a relief camp at Moirang College in Bishnupur, the officials said.
"We are very happy to be here...we have just come here and are looking forward to the visit," one of the visiting judges told reporters.
Justice N Kotiswar Singh, who is part of the delegation and belongs to the Meitei community, will not visit the Kuki-majority Churachandpur district, amid objection from a lawyers' body there, the officials said, adding that Justice Singh will head for Bishnupur district.
The All Manipur Bar Association (AMBA) has urged its Churachandpur district counterpart to withdraw its directive preventing a Meitei judge of the Supreme Court from visiting the Kuki-Zo-dominated area.
AMBA president Puyam Tomcha Meitei told PTI that the visit of the Supreme Court judges is historic and first-of-its-kind.
The apex court judges will also attend an event at the High Court of Manipur on Sunday.
More than 250 people have been killed and thousands rendered homeless in ethnic violence between Imphal Valley-based Meiteis and adjoining hills-based Kuki-Zo groups since May 2023.
