Which dog breed can live the longest?

[+R@cY]

On average , does anyone know which dog breed can live the longest.

It is probably some kind of mutt, so as not to be weakened by inbreeding.

Well, excluding the mutts.

Why? Mutts are the best and I love them

Thats way beyond the life expectancy .

I believe the longest lived dog was an Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) who lived to be 29 years 5 months.

However the Cattle Dog's average lifespan is about 12-15 years. The average lifespan of a chihuahua is 11-18 years so maybe they deserve the record as the longest lived breed.

An old acquaintence of mine owned a Chow-mix named, 'Chief' who was approaching twenty-four years old.

They are the smallest and the longest living dog.
Living 11 to 20 years!
There is one on record that lived to be 23:)

Not the best dogs for kids.
I have done rescue for 10 yr and kids are the number one cause of injury with this breed.

They are usually bond with one person but do ok with couples

Hope this helps!!

Remember RESCUE!!!!!
