| Really Old Dog About To Turn 27 Years Old http://www.click2houston.com/family/3519459/detail.html Really Old Dog About To Turn 27 Years Old POSTED: 8:37 am EDT July 12, 2004 CANBERRA, Australia -- Jerry is one old dog that doesn't need to learn any new tricks. Jerry turns 27 next month -- which is really old for a dog. A veterinarian in Australia said the mongrel cattle dog could become the world's oldest living canine. When Jerry turns 27, he'll be the human equivalent of a staggering 189 years old. The oldest living dog according to the Guinness record book is Butch, a 27-year-old beagle in Virginia. Dr. Honey Nelson said Jerry is in such good shape, he could push on to 28. Owner Waddie Harris said Jerry's Outback lifestyle contributes to his longevity. He notes that Jerry has grown up on kangaroo, rabbit and emu meat. Copyright 2004 by The Associated Press.

| Me neither. Mine sure never have.  Most dogs usually live to be around 10 or so. Go Jerry.  __________________ | |||
