It isn’t surprising that Lee
Joon Gi has a magical and emotional human-animal bond with his pet chihuahua,
Kabi. She likes his attention, loves to be petted and prefers his company to the company
of other dogs. He named her Kabi because she is very playful. Kabi bonds with Lee in a way no other dog does; she has outlived his pet male chihuahua and has his full attention. Lee also has an
affinity with other animals, especially with horses. This can be seen in his
various projects like the one with The Star in 2021. The King of Saguek has
worked rather well with different horses for his television series particularly, in historical ones.
  
In the interview with One
Fine Day, the magazine which focusses on Lee’s Bali photoshoot in May 2024, Lee
had to field questions on his pet female dog. The actor talks lovingly of his pet
canine who is more than 12 years old. One can discern from the various images
of the interaction between Lee and his pet dog that there is a glow in their eyes and this speaks volumes of their boundless love for each other.        ‘Specifically, when do you
find your pet most adorable?’ It is easy to answer. She greets him with
excitement and happiness whenever he returns home. They understand each other completely
as they spend a lot of time together. As Kinky Friedman says, ‘Money can buy
you a fine dog but only love can make him wag his tail.’

Lee sadly divulges that
Kabi is getting old and her health is failing. There is a touch of
poignancy in what he says. ‘I want to give her all my love, as much love as
I can till the end.’
