"Forget Louis Vuitton or Prada suits," crows the London Times. "The latest must-have accessory for China's wealthy elite comes ... from the plains of Tibet. The Tibetan mastiff." The droopy-faced breed of dog, which can weigh up to 250 lbs., are extremely rare, and therefore highly coveted. One puppy with a "fine pedigree" goes for about $4,000. A fully grown "iron and gold" male can fetch (ha!) over $390,000. Hopefully the owners aren't feeding it dog food made in China. [Times]
