102 in dog years

Meet twenty-year-old dachshund Chanel, who is set to take the crown as world's oldest dog in September's new Guinness Book of World Records.


Chanel has lived with her family since she was 6 weeks of age. She currently suffers from a heart-murmur, cataracts and a tumor on her foot, but these haven't shortened her lifespan and they don't appear to negatively impact her life. Chanel's daily wardrobe includes red goggles for her light sensitive eyes, a bootie for her tumor affected foot and a cozy sweater.
