主持人RACHEL MARTIN：

Good morning. I'm Rachel Martin. TobyKeith just made history. Not the singer, but a Chihuahua named TobyKeith has set a Guinness World Record as the oldest dog alive. He claimed the crown at 21 years and 66 days old. His secret - a daily walk and a slice of turkey. His pet parent, who adopted him as a pup, also credits³ good genetics and a loving home. She says people can't believe how good TobyKeith looks for his age. Maybe he does have a secret life as a country music singer, and it's kept him young. It's MORNING EDITION.

早上好我是雷切尔·马丁。托比·基思刚刚创造了历史。不是这位歌手，而是一只名叫Toby Keith的吉娃娃创造了吉尼斯世界纪录，成为世界上最长寿的狗。他在21岁零66天的时候获得了桂冠。他的秘密——每天散步和一块火鸡肉。他的主人在他还是小狗的时候就收养了他，他们也认为这是一个良好的基因和充满爱的家。主人说，人们无法相信托比·基思以他的年龄看起来有多好。也许他确实过着乡村音乐歌手的秘密生活，这让他保持了年轻。这是早上版。
