'Gunther's Millions' Exposes ‘World's Richest Dog’ Hoax

Gunther the German Shepherd allegedly inherited $400 million from his dead mysterious owner. As Inside Edition reported in 1999, it was all a hoax. Now, the wild tale is the subject of a new Netflix docuseries called "Gunther's Millions." A corporation called "The Gunther Trust” actually bought Madonna's Miami mansion for the dog. Apparently, it was all part of an elaborate scheme created by a publicity-loving Italian pharmaceutical heir to avoid paying taxes.
