A pair of Korean mastiff puppies has managed to break headlines in the country after they were bought for a staggering Rs. 2 crore by a Bengaluru-based businessman. Satish S, dog breeder and president of the Indian Dog Breeder’s Association, says that he had wanted to own this particular breed for the last 20 years but had tough luck until now.

The nine-week-old puppies, a male and a female, will be kept in an air-conditioned environment for a period of three months until they are able to adjust to the Indian weather, says their proud owner. The self-confessed dog-lover also says that he takes care to feed the local dogs near his residence and loves all types of dogs irrespective of their pedigree, according to various media reports.

Although pedigree dogs are considered to be prized pets in India, many of them tend to fall sick because of the weather and are often abandoned. Korean Dosa mastiff dogs can grow up to be very big and even weigh up to 70 kg as an adult.
