Chanel the worlds oldest dog. :)

I just read this and it's cool that a dog can live this long and still be healthy and happy! It's a sweet story, too. Enjoy. :)

It was on the Today show, but I missed it.

Happy Birthday Chanel!!!:D

Hey! i just read that and was gonna post it on here but you beat me to it! lol! it's a cute story though.

I read that story earlier today. I can't believe how great it is that Chanel has reached such a ripe old age. Her owner must have had her most of her life because she looks fairly young.:) Doesn't that give us all encouragement?

Yup, it does. I hope I'm that lucky (and the rest of you too..an empty Dog Memorial would be glorious)

I met somebody at the dog park whose Beagle was 18.

That's amazing! I believe dogs can live that long - My beagle mix was 18 also..

I have groomed several nineteen and twenty year old dogs ... and one that was barely twenty-one when she died. All of them poodles, incidentally. The difference though, was a that the dog I knew that was twenty-one was deaf, blind, completely incontinent, wore diapers, and lived in a crate. She should have been euthanized long before she died, IMO, she had no quality of life left. :(

That is cool! I read somewhere not to long ago (i don't remember where i read it) there was a Chihuahua that lived until it was 20 years old. It was very loved and beautiful!:D
