The world's oldest dog ever has died at the age of 31 years and 165 days.
Guinness World Record holder Bobi, a purebred Rafeiro do Alentejo, passed away at his home in Portugal on Saturday.
His death was announced on social media by a veterinarian who met Bobi several times.
"Despite outliving every dog in history, his 11,478 days on earth would never be enough, for those who loved him," wrote Dr Karen Becker.
Bobi became both the world's oldest living dog and the oldest dog ever in February - beating an almost century-old record for the latter title.
The previous oldest dog ever was Australia's Bluey, who died in 1939 at the age of 29 years and five months.
Bobi's grand old age was validated by the Portuguese government's pet database, which is managed by the National Union of Veterinarians.
The identity of Bobi's successor to the title of world's oldest living dog has not yet been revealed.

3. They never live long enough

When I die I want to go where my baby is and if I can't then I'd rather turn into worm food. I am counting on my own personal experiences after both of my dogs died as well as my dad. Something does happen after you die. I don't know what it is and I am an Atheist but something happens and they will be/are with us, from what I have gathered from non-religious Near-death experiences by people all over the world. Our loved one are there and that includes our pets/babies.
