A DOG’S LIFE
Meet Britain’s most pampered pooch!
Britain’s most pampered pooch has had a staggering £40,000 spent on her over her short lifetime – and even owns three cars and a boat! Lucky Princess Cleopatra Superchill, the Staffordshire Bull Terrier, has had a life of luxury that includes 65 outfits and 175 pairs of sunglasses, and even a bespoke £1,500 pram so she doesn’t get her paws dirty. The spoiled staffie, nicknamed ‘Cleo’, has just celebrated her seventh birthday where her owner, Anthony Welsh, spent a further £1,000 on lavish gifts for the beloved pooch who he describes as his ‘daughter’. Cleopatra was treated to the finest tennis balls, a posh
station and her very own custom-made mountain bike in honour of her special day.
She was then thrown her own beach party at the Marino Lounge dog-friendly café at New Brighton, on the Merseyside coast, along with her bulldog boyfriend, Frank, and Frank’s owner, Toni Green.
They enjoyed doggy birthday cake, doggy steak and partied with balloons and presents.
‘People may think I spoil her, but she’s like a daughter to me and if I have the means, why not give her everything?’ Anthony said.
Anthony buys only the best dog food for his pooch, at around £40 a bag, and Cleo also has three kids’ sports cars – a 4×4, a convertible white sports car and a racing car, all at £500 each.
The preened pooch – who even goes for regular manicures to keep her paws in shape – rides around in her classy vehicles wearing one of her countless outfits for every occasion.
She also has a number of tiaras to choose from.
Anthony’s obsession began
when he rescued Cleo from being locked in a cage when she was just a year old.
‘She was actually diagnosed with depression so I was on a mission to make her happy,’ he explained.
‘In six months, I noticed a huge difference in her temperament and we’ve gone from strength to strength.’
Cleo now is a superstar in her own right and competes in dog shows around the country.
The precious pup has won a staggering 89 rosettes at dog shows, gaining accolades for showing best tricks, waggiest tail, shiniest coat and best dressed – in fancy dress.
‘She makes me smile every day,’ said Anthony. ‘I feel love from Cleo every day of the week.’
