Kabosu (KABOSU)

“Kabosu (Japanese: ???) is a female Shiba Inu most famously known as the face of Doge.

Kabosu was born on November 2nd, 2005, in a Japanese pedigree puppy mill that was promptly shut down, leaving Kabosu stranded in one of Japan’s many animal shelters. The owner of Kabosu, Atsuko Sato, rescued her in 2008, saving her from certain death at the hands of humanity. A shelter volunteer gave her name. Kabosu is a type of fruit, and the rescue worker mentioned that her face was very round, just like the fruit’s.

The goal of Kabosu is to prevent dogs of all breeds from being abandoned. For this reason, we will be making weekly donations to community-chosen dog charities!”
