Introduction


 
 
Dogs are one of the most common household pets in America. There are so many different options when it comes to breeds. There are also many different varieties of colors, sizes, and personality traits within breeds. Some dog breeds are naturally calmer than others, such as the Sussex Spaniel. Others are more suitable for being around children, such as the Labrador Retriever and the Collie. Anyone that wants to own a dog can find a breed perfectly suited for them. Certain breeds can be quite pricey. The most expensive dog ever sold as of March 2011 sold for 10 million Yuan, which is the equivalent to 1.5 million U.S. dollars. This 1.5 million dollar dog is a red Tibetan mastiff.

I plan to cover the 8 most expensive dog breeds in the world. This includes what makes these dogs so expensive to buy, where they are from, special qualities they have, and facts about the breeds. There will be pictures, prices, and descriptions for every breed; including the price of the most expensive individual dog sold for every breed. I will do one post on each dog, beginning with number 8 and ending with number one, the most expensive dog breed of the world.
