Kabosu (Japanese: かぼす, pronounced [kabosɯ̥], c. November 2, 2005[1] – May 24, 2024) was a Shiba Inu dog from Japan. Adopted in 2008 by kindergarten teacher Atsuko Sato (佐藤 敦子, Satō Atsuko), she is prominently featured in the original Doge meme and the Dogecoin cryptocurrency.
Kabosu was a pedigree dog who was sent to an animal shelter when her puppy mill shut down. She was adopted in 2008 by Japanese kindergarten teacher Atsuko Sato, and named after the citrus fruit kabosu by a volunteer at the shelter. Sato kept the name, because she thought the dog had a round face like the fruit.[2]
kabosu is a vary playful dog. we are trying to remember her memory by the new project DOKE which is DOGE but with a K representing KASPA.
Our team is small but our dreams and ideas aren’t . our goal is to keep the memory of kabosu alive. we are two community members that are passionate about doke so much that we made this project from scratch .
Our history comes back to kabosu CTO which got abandoned due to supply issues
But doke is a fresh start with a dedicated team that would put their 100% to succeeding this project.
