This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Shiba Inu, named Kabosu, “fell into a deep sleep” on Friday morning, Atsuko Sato, a teacher in Japan, said in a blog post.
Kabosu became an internet celebrity after social media users spread a now-famous photo of the rescue dog that Sato posted to her blog in 2010.
Meme-makers slapped rainbow Comic Sans font over Kabosu’s side-eyed look and crossed-paws pose, narrating the pup’s inner dialogue with short, broken phrases like “much wow” or “such happy.”
The coin was created as a joke to mock cryptocurrencies, but jumped in value years later after Elon Musk, then the world’s richest person and a champion of Dogecoin, tweeted about the currency.
The owner of the social media platform formerly known as Twitter posted a picture on X of Harambe, another late mammalian meme, hugging the dog in heaven.
In 2022, Sato said Kabosu had been diagnosed with acute cholangiohepatitis, an inflammatory liver condition, and chronic lymphoma leukemia, a blood cancer.
