Shiba Inu Balltze, also known as “Ball Ball” and the subject of several viral memes, has died.
In an Instagram post by Balltze’s owner, he fell asleep on Friday morning during a thoracentesis surgery that was supposed to be his last. After the surgery, Balltze owners were looking to arrange chemotherapy visits. Unfortunately, Balltze never got up and died during surgery.
Balltze and his owners, based in Hong Kong, achieved internet virality through a 2017 picture of him, where the image of the dog was used for several “Cheems” memes online.
Some of the most notable “Cheems” memes were the “Swole Doge vs. Cheems” memes. A comparison format meme featuring a cutout of the viral photo of Cheems and a Shiba Inu photoshopped to look muscular.
Another meme is the viral photo of Balltze hitting another dog with a baseball with the onomatopoeia “bonk.”
