A well-aged Chihuahua in Palm Beach County, Florida, has been officially named the “world’s oldest dog living,” according to Guinness World Records.
TobyKeith was 21 years, 66 days old on March 16 when he garnered the impressive title for himself, and plenty of excitement for his owner, Gisela Shore, from Greenacres, who adopted the tiny pooch from the shelter where she volunteered when he was just a few months old over two decades ago.
He was born in the U.S.A. on January 9, 2001.
