世界最長(zhǎng)壽狗去世 狗齡147歲

       Karl Shaughnessy nominated Chanel for the title of world's oldest dog after noticing the Guinness World Records book had no record.

　　之前《吉尼斯世界紀(jì)錄》并沒(méi)有收錄世界最長(zhǎng)壽狗的紀(jì)錄，卡爾?肖內(nèi)西注意到之后便提名香奈爾競(jìng)爭(zhēng)這一頭銜。

　　"Dogs are God's angels sent here to look out for us," Denice Shaughnessy said.

　　丹尼斯說(shuō)：“狗是上帝派到人間來(lái)看護(hù)我們的天使。”

　　A dog from New Iberia, La., named Max, is vying for the record of world's oldest dog. Owner Janelle Derouen said Max marked his 26th birthday on Aug. 9. She said Guinness World Records officials were reviewing documents to verify his age.

　　目前，來(lái)自路易斯安那州新伊比利亞的一只名為馬克斯的狗正在競(jìng)爭(zhēng)世界最長(zhǎng)壽狗的紀(jì)錄。它的主人詹妮爾?德勞恩稱，馬克斯于今年8月9日度過(guò)了他26歲的生日。她稱吉尼斯世界紀(jì)錄的官員們正在審核材料，以證實(shí)其年齡。

　　When asked for the secret to her dog's long life, Derouen said she was shocked he's still with her.

　　在被問(wèn)及狗長(zhǎng)壽的秘訣時(shí)，德勞恩說(shuō)她自己也感到很驚訝。

　　她說(shuō)：“我有五個(gè)孩子，都長(zhǎng)大離開(kāi)家了，現(xiàn)在我的孫子們又在和它玩。”
