The world’s oldest pooch died on Friday, at her owners’ Long Island home in New York. Chanel was 21 years old, the equivalent of 147 in doggy years.
She made her way into the Guinness Book of World Records, and had a birthday bash thrown in her honour by a Manhattan based pet food company. The pooch party was held in May in true doggy style luxury at a dog hotel and spa facility.
Her owners, Denise and Carl Shaughnessy, said she was lively and delightful even in her later years, despite having to wear tinted goggles for her cataracts, and sweaters because of her sensitivity to the cold.
Her owners are sure to miss her, since they had her ever since she was just a six week old dachshund pup.
Perhaps they can take comfort in the fact that at least their pet had a long and healthy life, and went well after her time was due. Her memories will be sure to make them smile every time they think of her though.
