Over a year after selling a nine-bedroom, eight-and-a-half-bath Miami estate once occupied by Madonna for $29 million, German shepherd Gunther VI — reportedly the world's richest dog — is set to make headlines again.
Netflix will premiere Gunther's Millions on February 1. The four-part investigative documentary series crisscrosses the globe to explore how the dog has amassed his riches and what the humans who run the canine's estate have done with the cash.
The lucky dog's wealth comes from the late German Countess Karlotta Leibenstein, who died in 1992 and willed her entire $80 million fortune to her beloved pooch, Gunther III — Gunther VI's grandfather — as she had no children or close relatives, according to several reports.

PEOPLE has an exclusive look at the trailer for the upcoming Netflix show about Gunther VI.
In the Gunther's Millions trailer, humans who have met and worked for Gunther rattle off the dog's numerous assets, including private jets, a yacht, and several properties in Italy. But there's more to Gunther's life than glamour and steak dinners, the canine — now reportedly worth over $400 million — is at the heart of a good deal of drama too.
