Bobi, a purebred Rafeiro do Alentejo, a breed of Portuguese dog, has lived in a “calm, peaceful environment” without ever being chained or leashed, which many say is the biggest contributing factors to his longevity.
CONQUEIROS, Portugal — The world's oldest dog recently celebrated his 31st birthday, according toBobi, a purebred Rafeiro do Alentejo, a breed of Portuguese dog, celebrated during a party Saturday at his home in the Portuguese village of Conqueiros, where has lived his entire life.Local meats and fish were served to up to 100 guests, with extra for Bobi, who only eats human food. A dance troupe also performed with Bobi participating in one of their routines.
“We see situations like this as a normal result of the life that they have, but Bobi is one of a kind,” Costa said. Throughout his life, Bobi has freely roamed the forests surrounding the Costa house. He has never been chained or leashed. Now in his senior years, Bobi finds it difficult to walk, so he prefers to hang out at home in the yard. His eyesight has gotten worse, meaning he often bumps into things when he walks. Just like old-age humans, Bobi sleeps a lot. He immediately lies down in bed after eating, although on cold days he chooses to nap by the fire, his owner said.
