What appears to be a funeral is what was going on but this time, a well to do Shanghai dog owner forks out 8,000 yuan on Taobao service which specializes in laying animals to its final resting place. The funeral service helped carry out a fitting tribute to the unique life of this dog.

The procession featured a luxury car carrying a photo of the late pet. The event called for attention as it passed with a convoy through the city on August 29.
