Bobi turned 31 in May. He is a Portuguese breed called Rafeiro do Alentejo. He lives in Conqueiros, Portugal. Leonel Costa owns Bobi. Mr. Costa threw his dog a party. He served 100 guests. Mr. Costa believes one reason Bobi has lived so long is because he lives in a “calm, peaceful environment.” Bobi likes to hang out at home and take lots of naps.

God governs the days of every creature and person. “In His hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.” (Job 12:10)

Update: Guinness World Records ruled in February of 2024 that it does not have enough proof that Bobi was the oldest dog in the world. Bobi died in October of 2023.
