RIP to him - and my condolences to his owners. I hope they'll take comfort from the fact that Bobi enjoyed a magnificent and record-breaking life, which no doubt included a great many happy memories.

Well, Bobi's age has been thrown into doubt:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-68002393

If his age is correct, then it's absolutely remarkable - but that's all the more reason to demand hard evidence. Hopefully, they can get to the bottom of this soon!
Oh whoa! That’s crazy.

Yep - to be honest, I'm surprised that this hadn't come up before. I thought Guinness World Records would be quite rigorous with this sort of thing, given how many longevity-related disputes there have been in the past!

Apparently, a puppy grew his jaw back after it was removed due to cancer:

As sad as it is that that puppy's been suffering cancer at such a young age, I'm glad he's on the mend :) !

Well, unfortunately, this next one isn't very cute :( .

The police have rescued a dog who had 17lb of excess fur, because his owner hadn't groomed him in 19 months (and didn't think he needed grooming):

Fortunately, Barney looks a lot better now... but, it's sad that he had to go through this :X !

The Bobi saga continues... he's been stripped of his title:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-68372456

Sad to see - but if sufficient evidence was never provided, then I have to ask why he was granted the title in the first place?

Sad to see a dog not groomed by its owner, horrendous for the poor dog.

A lurcher named Jake, who had been dubbed "Britain's most unwanted dog", has finally found a home after four years:

Glad to see it, and I hope he has a long and happy life in his new home :) !

Apparently, a beagle called Jeremy got his head stuck in a garden wall - but fortunately, firefighters managed to rescue him:

Poor dog - but I'm glad he was saved!

Sad news now. Kabosu, the dog who inspired the Doge meme, has died at the age of 18:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czkkr8l7jjxo

Quite long-lived for a dog, but still, very sad to see - and I offer my condolences to her owner.
