Commissar SFLUFAN Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 The average lifespan for a shiba inu is 15 years so I'd say Kabosu had a good run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSpreader Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Quote Sato told Japanese newspaper the Ashahi Shimbun in February that Kabosu was a rescue dog that was at one point close to being put down. Kabosu’s exact age is unclear, but Sato said in February she was 18. “Ever since Kabosu came into my home, a series of miraculous things have happened, enriching my life and gifting me with a treasure trove of priceless moments,” Sato told the paper.

SaysWho? Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 I remember finding out when the old "I have no idea what you're talking about so here's a rabbit with a pancake on its head" rabbit from the early 2000s died. In fact, they had pictures of its last days. I love that these animals spark another life via memes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
