How much would you be willing to pay for your dog? An Aussie family has shelled out a mouthwatering amount for a dog that is claimed to be the ‘best guard dog in the world’.
The Norris family is estimated to earn up to ten grand a day from their social media videos, with an estimated net worth of $28 million.
The family of eight is reported to have shelled out a staggering $176,000 for the specially trained German Shepherd to be flown over from the United Kingdom. Demi, the German Shepherd, was brought in to protect the family’s six ‘influencer’ children.
Demi is among the few highly sought after security dogs. These security dogs often fetch a similar price to high end sports cars such as Aston Martins and Maseratis. These dogs are bought not for their companionship, but for protection.

The Norris family gained popularity from their vlogs of various activities on their Youtube channel. The family often uploads their adventures, pranks, and family competitions on the social media platform.

Mum Brooke Norris and dad Justin head up the family production, calling themselves the Norris Nuts. The Norris Nuts have a combined six million subscribers on Youtube, as well as a combined five million followers on Instagram.
Sabre Norris, the eldest of the six Norris children, said she had been ‘feeling so unsafe lately’ in a Youtube video from December. She wanted Demi to provide them with some peace of mind. The family only confirmed the purchase of Demi last week and they couldn’t be more excited for her arrival.
To become an ‘elite’ security guard, Demi trained for 18 months at Protection Dog Worldwide service. Her trainer, Leedor Borlant, is adamant that Demi will do the family justice, and give them a sense of security.
German Shepherds make for great security dogs.
According to Leedor, Demi is a serious weapon that should not be taken lightly. She is a formidable force and is willing to protect the family at all costs.
Demi is only one of the many dogs trained by the UK based security service. Due to rising demand, the company has recently expanded its operations to the US, Asia, and the Pacific regions.
