"Guinness World Records Revokes Title from Bobi, World's Oldest Dog"

TL;DR Summary
Guinness has revoked the title of world's oldest dog from Bobi, a Rafeiro do Alentejo from Portugal, after a month-long investigation failed to provide conclusive evidence of his claimed age of 31. Bobi's age was called into question by veterinarians, and Guinness ultimately concluded that they did not have enough evidence to support his record. The investigation highlighted the need for more stringent evidence requirements for pet records, and while a new record holder has not been named, Guinness hopes the publicity will encourage pet owners worldwide to come forward.
