So, that 31-year-old dog in Portugal might not be the oldest dog in the world after all

• Bobi, a record-breaking dog who was said to have lived until 31, is now having his age questioned.
• The Guinness World Records said on Tuesday that it suspended Bobi's title while it investigates.
• Bobi died in October after being crowned the world's oldest dog in February 2023.

In February 2023, the Guinness World Records announced that it had found the world's oldest living canine and the oldest dog ever recorded.

Bobi, a Rafeiro do Alentejo in Portugal, was bestowed the accolade at the staggering age of, according to his owner, 30.

Bobi then died in October, making him 31 years old at the time. But the Guinness World Records is now putting his title on hold amid a wave of questions over the legitimacy of his claim.
