When I work evenings (HATE) at least I get to catch some daytime TV. Folks, the last 2 hours of the Today Show is all fluff. But this was just on and I had to show you a picture. This is Chanel, supposedly the oldest dog in the world (although I don't know how anyone would know that... the last dog census... wait, there never was one). She's 21. The goggles are for cataracts. I believe she's a long-haired dachshund.
Also apparently the traditional belief that dogs age 7 "dog years" for every year is apparently not accurate (and would mean that Chanel is 147...) The Today Show said she was 120 in dog years but I just read online (hence it must be true) that a more accurate estimation is that dogs age 10.5 dog years for the first 2 years of life and then 4 dog years every year thereafter. Hence Chanel would actually be 97. Not that impressive anymore, Chanel!

She looks like an old biddy. With the sweater and the goggles, and that purty white hair, she'd fit right in at any retirement home in Florida.
