World's Biggest Wildlife Crossing Breaks Ground on Earth Day
A landmark Earth Day ceremony to celebrate the start of construction on the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing in Southern California just happened.
A new record for the world's oldest dog living has been confirmed in Florida: Meet Chihuahua TobyKeith. Born on 9 January, 2001, he's 21 years old.
A new record for the world's oldest dog living has been official confirmed in Florida: Born on 9 January, 2001, meet 21-year-old chihuahua TobyKeith.
TobyKeith's owner, Gisela Shore, has been with him for much of his life after adopting him from a shelter.
"I was a volunteer at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue and one of the employees told me about an elderly couple trying to surrender a puppy because they could not take care of him any longer," Gisela told Guinness World Records.
"I met with the elderly couple and I was introduced to a tiny tan Chihuahua. They had named him Peanut Butter. I later changed his name to TobyKeith."
TobyKeith has a close friendship with Gisela's 28-year-old umbrella cockatoo Coco, and often walks around with her. Otherwise, he enjoys eating slices of turkey, going on little walks, and lying next to Gisela's work station while she works from home.
To celebrate being named the world's oldest dog, on the day Guinness confirmed the news, TobyKeith got a bath, he had his nails trimmed down, and then he went on a car ride-his favorite treat.
