Grumpy Looking Insta-Famous Dog Helps Pay Owner's Tuition Fee

Darpan News Desk IANS, 09 Sep, 2016 12:36 PM
    A grumpy looking husky dog has netted his owner a staggering 20,000 pounds that she is now using towards paying for her medical degree.
     
    Jasmine Milton, 20, from Shropshire bought her two-year- old pup Anuko as a way of helping her battle with her bipolar disorder.
     
    But the dog's unusual markings have since caused a sensation online after she set up an Instagram page in Anuko's name.
     
    Appearing to have a steely stare and furrowed brow because of the pattern of his fur, Anuko has amassed 11,000 followers on the social media site, the Mirror reported.
     
    Jasmine said, "He's really affectionate, he loves people. He loves cuddles, he loves dogs. He's never been grumpy at all. He's always had social media since he was a puppy and he has always had this look as well," she said.
     
    Jasmine is hoping to study at the Plovdiv Medical University in Bulgaria next year and said: "It's certainly going to help towards it, all the money that he is making. It's not going to cover the whole thing but it's a real good start."
     
    She added: "Before I got him I went through a really low phase, when I was in hospital someone said dogs are a really good therapy, they help their owners. It really did help," Jasmine said.
