(AP) – Bobi, (above) the purebred Rafeiro do Alentejo from
Portugal who was the world’s oldest dog, has died.

Guinness World Records says Bobi died Saturday at his
home in Conqueiros, Portugal, after living for 31 years
and 165 days.

The organization cited Bobi’s owner, Leonel Costa (below)
as saying that he was never tied up or leashed during his 
life and as he got older, spent most of his time in the
backyard of his property hanging out with cats.
