You’ve likely seen the iconic Doge meme—a photo of a Shiba Inu dog that has taken over social media from Reddit to Facebook to Instagram. This meme, as well as the popular cryptocurrency Dogecoin, features a Japanese dog named Kabosu, who recently passed away at the age of 18.
While Kabosu’s exact age is uncertain, it is estimated that she was around 18 years old based on her adoption records.
If you’re not sure who Kabosu is, think of the cryptocurrency “Dogecoin.” The image on Dogecoin’s logo is none other than Kabosu, the beloved Shiba Inu who became a social media sensation.
Kabosu’s owner shared her feelings about losing her cherished companion, saying that Kabosu was the happiest dog, and she felt fortunate to have been her owner. Kabosu passed away peacefully in her sleep.
The viral phenomenon began when Kabosu’s owner posted a photo of her sitting on a sofa with her legs crossed, giving an endearing expression. This image quickly went viral, leading to the creation of an NFT and the launch of the Dogecoin cryptocurrency, which has been famously supported by Elon Musk.
In late 2022, Kabosu fell ill with leukemia and liver disease. Her owner, Atsuko Sato, mentioned that the “invisible power” of prayers from fans around the world helped Kabosu pull through for a while. Kabosu’s popularity even inspired the creation of a $100,000 statue of her sitting on a sofa.
At 18 years old, Kabosu passed away, but her legacy lives on. People from all over the world continue to remember her for bringing joy and smiles to millions.
