He inherited the money from his father, Gunther III, who inherited the money from his owner, the countess Karlotta Leibenstein who passed away in 1991, leaving $106 million to her dog.

If you’re a fan of Oprah, you may already be familiar with one of the richest Women of Colour and her pups. In fact, this dog-lover has quite a few: Golden retrievers Luke and Layla, cocker spaniel Sadie and springer spaniels Sunny and Lauren.

Choupette (born 15 August 2011) is the pet cat of Karl Lagerfeld, head of design and creative director at Chanel.

The feline pet of Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld is almost as famous as her owner and is worth $3.5 million alone. With her own social media and branded items, Choupette keeps Lagerfeld’s legacy alive following his death in early 2019. The cat is purported to get some of his $195 million fortunes, but details haven’t been finalized. If she gets the money, then Choupette could be the richest cat in the world.

Doug the Pug lives in Nashville, Tennessee, with his owner Leslie Mosier and has become an internet sensation – with over 13 million followers. He’s also the start of a Fall Out Boy music video, is a New York Times best-selling author, and stars in the Oscar-nominated animated film ‘The Mitchells vs. the Machines’.

With more than 12 million followers across his social media channels and more than a billion video views, Doug the Pug is one of the most well-known dogs on the planet. The 6-year-old pooch is the star of a Fall Out Boy music video and is a New York Times best-selling author — along with his owner, Leslie Mosier, that is — and that only scratches the surface of his impressive resume.

However, Mosier is quick to point out that Doug is also just a happy little pug. And, for her, that fact alone is a dream come true.

Mosier, who lives in Tennessee, brought Doug home as a puppy in the summer of 2012. But in a way, he’d been a part of her life since she was 13 and taping pictures of pugs to her mother’s bathroom mirror, hoping that she’d be allowed to get a pug she could name Doug. The hints didn’t work, but the name stuck with Mosier — and soon the internet would be stuck on Doug, too.

9. Tucker Budzyn - $1.5m
