Guinness World Records Strips Bobi of Oldest Dog Title
Originally Published 1 year ago — by CBS News
Bobi, previously deemed the world's oldest dog, had his title suspended by Guinness World Records due to lack of conclusive evidence supporting his age claim. Guinness requires evidence such as microchip data, vet and witness statements, and documentation for all years of a pet's life. Bobi, a purebred Rafeiro do Alentejo, died in October 2023 at reportedly 31 years old. Guinness has not yet confirmed a new record holder and hopes the publicity encourages pet owners to come forward.
