A Maggie Kelpi dog died recently at the age of 30 at his home in Ursop, Australia. This is the longest-lived dog known.
McGee's owner, Brian McLaren, told reporters: "Until last weekend, she was still on par with usual. She still walked the old road from the dairy to the office, barking at the cat in demonstration. By American Kennel Society standards, McKee is the equivalent of a living human being of 164 years.
Last year, a report in Australia's Perth region. She was considered 29 years old at the time.
Host Brian said: "McKee is a very important friend to me and we have been through many times together. He also added that McKee was deaf in the ear, but that she was in good health until two years ago.
Brian also recalled McKee's touching loyalty. In the past, McKee would pick up the kids every day. "When the kids go to school, they take the bus home every day at 4:00 p.m. If they hadn't shown up at the platform, McKee would have been there waiting, barking softly. ”
Unfortunately, Brian didn't keep proof that McGee lived to be 30 years old. He only remembers mcKee coming into the family when his son was 4 years old, and his son is now 34 years old.
Because of this shortcoming, McKee's record could not be officially recognized. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the world's longest-lived dog known is the Bluey, an Australian Shepherd dog that died in 1939 at the age of 29 years and 5 months.
According to official statistics, most dogs live around 8 to 15 years. Dogs with accurate records of living to age 20 are rare and are mostly rare breeds.
