Australian Cattle Dog: The dog who holds the Guinness record for longest life span was an Australian Cattle Dog named Bluey, who lived to be 29 years old. Thatâs astounding. I donât know of any ACDs who have approached that record, but I do know this breed can live a good 12 to 15 years, sometimes longer.
