The World's Oldest Dog
The world's oldest dog turns 21 today, according to The New York Post. Somehow, I would think there are other older dogs, though. Is she styling or what?

I heard about this on the radio and they said while there might be older dogs, she is the only one with documentation.

My family's yellow lab is 16 now - waaaaaaaay old for a big dog. So there have got to be smaller dogs older than 21. People probably just didn't realize this contest existed

^^Lol at "doggles."
The oldest dog was a 28-year-old beagle, but it died last year. This dog used to be in the #2 slot. And I don't see how they're in the "world's oldest" category when both of them came from Virginia...is Guinness even looking outside the US? The things we ponder when on vacation...

Maybe, maybe not. Who really keeps track?
Dekeguy had a 25 year old St Bernard.

All of the pets live at my Dad's place (Yellow Lab - Sis's dog, Australian Sheep dog mix - Brother's dog, and my lowest common denominator mix who is the grandson of my Cousin's dog brought home from Viet Nam in 1970. They have space to run and play and Kanga runs them ragged! Whatta dawg!

I read about this. The dog has to wear those special glasses because something is wrong with his/her eyes.
