Such sad news to hear that Leona Helmsley's little doggie "Trouble" died in December. He was twelve years old. That would make him about 84 human years old. So he had a long life.
And a good one, apparently. Remember that when Leona died in 2003 she left Trouble 12 million dollars in her will. A judge later dropped that to 2 million. But still....
Trouble was able to hire his own full time security guard and spent 8 thousand dollars a year on grooming. Carl Lekic, the general manager of the Helmsley Sandcastle hotel in Sarasota was paid 60 thousand dollars for being Trouble's companion.
So, all in all, I would say that most of the people on the planet would feel very grateful to have this dog's life.
