Worlds Oldest Dog Just Had One Awesome B-Day Party To Celebrate
http://wrat.comHey Rat Rock Nation today we turn our attention too the worlds oldest pup who just turned 31 !! Us here at The Rat love our puppies and furry friends, but this time around we say Happy Birthday to “Bobi” a purebred Rafeiro do Alentejo from rural Portugal.
UNSPECIFIED, ENGLAND – MAY 06: (EDITORS NOTE: location unspecified for safety reasons) An illegally imported cocker spaniel puppy in a kennel at a Dogs Trust rehoming facility on May 6, 2021 in an unspecified location in the United Kingdom. Dogs Trust have seen a marked increase by 66% of illegally imported puppies during the coronavirus pandemic as demands and street values have risen dramatically. Many of the dogs are imported from Eastern European countries, taken from their parents too young and enduring long and cruel journeys entering the U.K. under the current legal age of 15 weeks. Dogs Trust are calling on the U.K. government to raise the age of imported puppies to 6 months to make them less desirable and to also see tougher penalties for smugglers as currently only a handful of cases have lead to prosecution with minor penalties.

The Guinness World Records did crown “Bobi” back in February but this month of May he did hit a milestone of hitting the age of 31. How awesome is that ! The owner and family member Leonel Costa, threw an amazing party for him. “Bobi” got himself a wonderful birthday as over a 100 people showed up and even to keep it in a Portugal tradition, they cooked him up local meats and fish. Nothing but the best for “Bobi.”

This amazing pup had a bunch of friends even come from all over, even crossing international boarders. This party was a bunch of fun and had “Bobi” even got to jump in on a dance troupe. The owner did say that “Bobi” is in good health and does his normal check-ups with the local vet.
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – OCTOBER 22: Rescue puppy Charlie is seen during a press conference at Parliament House on October 22, 2020 in Sydney, Australia. The NSW Government has announced the creation of a Puppy Factory Taskforce within the RSPCA to help stop the illegal breeding of puppies. The new Taskforce will consist of six RSPCA inspectors who will spend their time inspecting breeding facilities across the State to ensure they meet the NSW Government’s animal welfare requirements.

The owner said a typical day for “Bobi” is him sunbathing and and hanging out in the backyard and roaming free. The average life span on the breed that “Bobi” is 12 – 14 years. The experts are saying why “Bobi” is around still because he lives in a peaceful rural area. I think maybe we should all take that advice right there.
