The world's oldest dog proved she was a real party animal by celebrating her 21st birthday with a big bash and a cake. Chanel, a dachshund from New York, was treated to a day out at the city's Dog Hotel and Spa to mark the milestone birthday and collect a certificate from a Guinness World Records official confirming their pet's status as the oldest dog. Impressive aye? That's nothing! The last time I was in NY, I think I had the oldest Hot Dog from a vendor in Central Park!
