Is This the Oldest Dog in the World ?
In the News
Bobo the Chihuahua has just turned 23 years of age
They normally only live for around 15 years, at 23 this makes him about 160 in human years
I was surprised to read he is from New York , Americans are not the healthiest of eaters and that could also go for their pets if they fed them junk , but this owner must have been doing something right
He must have been taking an occasional bite from the Big Apple
Bobi seems to be the oldest. He's 30 years old.
Quite surprised as dogs normally don't last that long so I'm hoping he'll be around for many more years to come!
PhilipMarc Wow that is fantastic P
And he looks in better condition than the one i found , Bobo, that means he is 210 in human years , an astronomical age
What a coincidence that they both have similar names, Bobo and Bobi
Just one letter difference
He has definitely been drinking from the fountain of youth
Everybody seems to think a dogs year is 7 in ours but it isn’t. It depends on the breed/size etc. you can google dog year calculators to find out how it’s worked out
TracyStorrie Do you know how old this dog is in human years T ?
I have always used the 7 year rule
Thanks
telmel I don't think there is an exact age-age, as obviously they are their own species. If you look online loads of charts of different too! But the most common is when they hit 1 years old they are 15 then it is roughly 7 years added on from there. But larger dogs tend to have shorter lives.
This chart is from the American Kennel Club.
telmel Also just to note, links that have ?fbclid= at the end of them is a tracking end, means the link was tracked through from facebook. You can remove anything after the ?fb

DeBunny Many thanks for that D
I noticed it only goes up to 16 years of age , probably the average age dogs pass away, and that puts a large size dog at 99 human years
So Bobi who i would say is large would be around 187 years of age which is still spectacular
Bobo would equate to around 144 yrs old being small
Sorry for some reason I’m not getting notifications for replies. But as person below has said you can search online. Most only go up to 20 years but I’m sure once they reach a certain age it stays the same
Going by the photo above it’s 4 years per year for a small dog so at 23 years old it’s 108 in our years
