The Only Dog Still Alive From The 90s

A lot of us remember the 99s, but only one dog does. Spike is the oldest known dog still alive today, who was born in the 1990s. But not everyone believes him. Last year, Guinness World Records recognized his significance, but then just a few months ago, they stripped him of his title.

In case you missed it, there has been huge drama this year in the oldest dog category. Truthers have begun questioning the title holder for longest living dog, Bobby. They say that Bobby's final age of 31 years is hard to believe and, regardless, has not been verified with enough certainty.

Now, after an investigation, Guinness World Records agreed. They implemented new standards under which none of the oldest known dogs today count. They say the next true record holder will probably need to be a dog microchipped since near birth.

So Spike was once a furry tether between us in a bygone time, but today he's a tall tale, like Paul Bunyan or John Henry. Whether you believe in him or not, his power comes not from fact, but from faith and mythology.
