"Gunther's Millions" is worth checking out for its weird premise alone. As the story goes, Countess Karlotta Liebenstein reportedly left her German shepherd Gunther a trust fund of $400 million, making her fur baby the owner of a yacht, several properties in Italy, and other privileges you'd probably see on "The White Lotus." Without a flicker of a doubt, there were people keen on taking advantage of Gunther's exorbitant inheritance. But if you think the idea of a wealthy dog is bizarre, the story gets even odder. Enter Maurizio Mian, the dog's celebrity handler who gathered a group of young, attractive people to live with Gunther, with cult-like rules governing their stay. Pretty soon, the outlandishness of the story put into question whether or not the countess was a real person and what Mian's elaborate end game was.
