The Scottish designer, who committed suicide last year wanted to ensure that his pets would be pampered and taken care of for the rest of their lives so his will entrusted them with close to $82,000.
The dogs, named Minter, Juice and Callum, received as much as each of his housekeepers and his nieces and nephews.
Every dog has its day, I guess? Literally. These dogs have just received their greatest pay day ever.
The will states that the money left for the dogs was “for the upkeep and maintenance of my dog or dogs so long as my dog or dogs shall live.” Also, those dogs are gonna have so much fun making it rain dollar bills at the dog park. Woof Woof!
He also left $160,000 to each of his four favorite charities, $400,000 to each of his siblings, and $80,000 each to his godson, nieces and nephews and his two housekeepers.
The rest of the estate was placed in a trust for his Sarabande charity (named after his spring/summer 2007 collection) which makes grants to people and organizations in need.
McQueen asked for trustees to consider using the funds as scholarships for students at his alma mater, London’s Central St. Martin’s College of Art and Design.
