If you're a fan of big, fluffy puppies, you couldn't ask for a breed bigger and fluffier, and as expensive as Tibetan Mastiff puppies. These puppies cost between $2,500 and $10,000 dollars, but this much cuteness is obviously worth it.

Just check out these gorgeous and rare Tibetan Mastiff puppies joining in for the most epic fluffy cuddle puddle!

This is just about the cutest pile of puppies ever in the video uploaded to the Instagram account for @Kinuliutaskennel.

One person commented, "Millions of dollars worth of dogs right here. Beautiful."

They aren't that far off because Tibetan Mastiff puppies, according to Spot Pet Insurance, can cost a pretty penny. They say:

"If you choose to purchase a Tibetan Mastiff from a breeder, you puppy will cost an average of $2000 - $6000, but puppies with champion bloodlines can cat as much as $12,000. A puppy's color, age, gender, and the breeder's reputation all affect the cost of the puppy. A red Tibetan Mastiff can cost between $2500-$10,000, while a black Tibetan Mastiff while still expensive, would be on the lower end of the price range because a black coat is more common. Because this breed is so rare, finding a Tibetan Mastiff at a shelter is relatively rare, but there is one shelter in the United States, Tibetan Mastiff Rescue Inc. Where they are available for adoption. If you are able to find a Tibetan Mastiff available for adoption, you will be able to bring home a puppy at a fraction of their typical cost."

This is not the most expensive Tibetan Mastiff, because Dogster says, "We mentioned earlier that the Tibetan Mastiff is a status symbol in China, and people are willing to pay millions for the dogs. And in 2011, Big Splash, a red Mastiff, supposedly sold for 10 million yuan ($1.5 million)! This was the most expensive sale of a dog ever recorded, making this breed the most expensive dog in the world."

Amazing. I think we can all agree that they are amazingly adorable, no matter how much they cost!
