TL;DR Summary

Guinness World Records has suspended the title of the world's oldest dog, held by Bobi, due to doubts about his reported age of 31 years and 165 days at the time of his death. The decision came after receiving correspondence from vets questioning the dog's age and noting public commentary from professionals. Bobi, a purebred Rafeiro from Portugal, was declared the oldest dog ever, surpassing the previous record held by an Australian cattle dog. The suspension is temporary while the review is ongoing, and Bobi's owner attributes his longevity to a tranquil country lifestyle and varied diet.
