Know about Bobi, world's oldest dog ever, who died aged 31
According to Guinness World Records, Bobi, the oldest dog in the world, passed away in portugal on monday at the age of 31. Bobi, an Australian cattle-dog who passed away at the age of 29 years and five months in 1939, set a record for the longest life span ever held by a purebred Rafeiro Alentejano who lasted his full life in a hamlet in central portugal, finishing at 31 years and 165 days.
Veterinarian Karen Becker, who met Bobi many times and was the first to post about his passing on social media, stated, "His 11,478 days on earth would never be enough for those who loved him, despite outliving every dog in history." "Godspeed, Bobi." In february of this year, he was proclaimed the oldest dog in the world.

The typical lifespan of Bobi's breed, which has historically been employed as sheepdogs, is 12 to 14 years.
Living in peace in the country, never being tethered or chained, and always consuming "human food" are just a few of the reasons given by his owner Leonel Costa for his long life.
Costa's father was a hunter, and as the family didn't have much money when Bobi was born, the new puppies were usually buried rather than kept.
Bobi, nevertheless, hid amid some firewood. A few days later, Costa and his brothers discovered him; they kept him a secret until the puppy opened his eyes.
Costa told Reuters earlier this year, "We knew that when he opened his eyes, my parents wouldn't be able to bury him."
Bobi continued to enjoy walks but had lost her sense of adventure before his death. His eyesight had gotten weaker, his fur was thinning, and he required more rest than usual.
Bobi's story was previously deemed "miraculous" by Guinness World Records, which also stated on monday that "he will be sorely missed". It was stated that more than 100 guests attended his 31st birthday celebration in May.
