“I wish I was that dog!” Here’s what many must have thought when they heard the name of Gunther IVa beautiful and regal German Shepherd.
It is said that this four-legged it was worth a good 440 million euros and that he lived surrounded by luxury, who even owned his own chef, a private jet, big limousines and even properties that belonged to stars like Madonna.
Too good to be true?
Oh yeah! Nothing is true! As it has now transpired, the whole story is actually a fake.
Media around the world covered this super dog. But the truth behind it is much disappointing.
The truth about Gunther IV
It is said that the very rich German Shepherd had inherited everything from his grandfather Gunther III, the favorite of the German countess Karlotta Liebenstein. We told you about it too, a few years ago!
In reality it is a fake news, a simple but apt one trovata marketingas reported by the news agency Associated Press (AP).
Who is behind this hoax?
It seems that behind this story, which has been talked about since 1994, there is the Italian Maurice Mian.
L’eccentric businessman and Tuscan pharmacologist, CEO of the Gunther Corporation, as well as president of Pisa Calcio from 2002 to 2005, actually wanted to encourage real estate sales and his other projects. It’s unclear to what extent this stunt worked for his business.
Soon on our TV screens!
There is no doubt, however, that the story of Gunther IV, the Scrooge McDuck, was well constructed enough to have fascinated half the world for nearly 30 years!
And… hear hear! The story of this German Shepherd and his master Maurizio Mian will soon land on Netflix.
The streaming platform has announced the release of a series entitled “Gunther’s Millions” on February 1, 2023!
Enjoy your vision everyone!
