Kabosu, the Shiba Inu who’s the star of the Doge meme and Dogecoin, crossed the rainbow bridge at the grand old age of 18.
A Beloved Dog Says Goodbye
Her human, Atsuko Sato, says Kabosu had been battling some senior pup health issues (leukemia and liver problems). Even with all the love and vet treatments money could buy, Kabosu passed away peacefully surrounded by her family.
Living the Long Shiba Life
18 years for a Shiba Inu (or dogs in general) is pretty amazing. These fluffy fox-looking doggos usually only make it to 12 or 15. Only a fifth of pups even see 15; even fewer hit the 18th mark. This could be attributed to her diet and the love she got from her family.
Meme Queen
Remember that picture of Kabosu with the raised eyebrow that broke the internet in 2010? That one picture turned into the Doge meme. But it wasn’t just funny; it inspired a whole new kind of money—dogecoin! It started as a joke, but now it’s a real thing with many fans.
Doge wasn’t just a meme queen, though. She became a symbol for the entire internet—funny pictures, adorable animals, and endless creativity. People made art, clothes, and even raised money for good causes—all inspired by Kabosu.
