Here is a before and after photo of the famous DOGE image with how Kabosu looks now: Kabosu was born on November 2, 2005, in a puppy mill which was shut down. She was sent to an animal shelter, and in 2008 she was adopted by a Japanese kindergarten teacher who named her after a citrus fruit because her face was round like the fruit. Kabosu and is now the face of a $33B market cap cryptocurrency, she's been featured on a NASCAR race car, has been referenced in many video games including Zelda, and was even in Weird Al Yankovic's music video. submitted by /u/gdj11 |
