A wire-haired dachshund that held the record as the world's oldest dog and celebrated its last birthday with a party at a dog hotel and spa has died at age 21 — or 147 in dog years.

世界最长寿狗纪录保持者于近日去世，享年21岁，按照狗龄计算是147岁。这只硬毛德国种猎犬的最后一次生日在一家犬旅馆度过，当时人们为它举行了生日派对，它还享受了一次水疗服务。

The dog, named Chanel, died Friday of natural causes at her owners' home in suburban Port Jefferson Station, on Long Island.

上周五，这只名叫“香奈尔”的狗在她主人位于长岛杰斐逊港站郊区的家中自然死去。

Chanel, as stylish as her legendary namesake, wore tinted goggles for her cataracts in her later years and favored sweaters because she was sensitive to the cold, owners Denice and Karl Shaughnessy said Monday.

据香奈尔的主人丹尼斯和卡尔•肖内西于本周一介绍，与和她同名的传奇人物一样，香奈尔也很时尚，由于晚年患上白内障，她一直戴着彩色护目镜，而且因为怕冷，她不得不穿着毛衣。

The playful dachshund was only 6 weeks old when Denice Shaughnessy, then serving with the U.S. Army, adopted her from a shelter in Newport News, Va.

当年丹尼斯•肖内西在弗吉尼亚州纽波特纽斯的一家收容所收养这只顽皮的小猎犬时，它仅有6周大。当时丹尼斯还在美国军中服役。

Along with her owner, Chanel spent nine years on assignment in Germany, where she became adept at stealing sticks of butter from kitchen countertops and hiding them in sofa cushions in the living room, Shaughnessy said. She also liked chocolate, usually considered toxic to dogs, Shaughnessy said.

由于主人被外派，香奈尔便跟随着在德国生活了九年。其间，香奈尔练就了从厨房灶台偷黄油棒，再把它们藏到客厅沙发垫底下的本领。她还爱吃巧克力，而巧克力通常被认为是狗的“毒药”。

"She once ate an entire bag of Reese's peanut butter cups, and, you see, she lived to be 21, so go figure," Shaughnessy added.

丹尼斯•肖内西说：“有一次她吃了一整袋的里斯牌花生酱，但你看，她活到了21岁。所以大家想想看吧。”

Karl Shaughnessy nominated Chanel for the title of world's oldest dog after noticing the Guinness World Records book had no record.

之前《吉尼斯世界纪录》并没有收录世界最长寿狗的纪录，卡尔•肖内西注意到之后便提名香奈尔竞争这一头衔。

"Dogs are God's angels sent here to look out for us," Denice Shaughnessy said.

丹尼斯说：“狗是上帝派到人间来看护我们的天使。”

A dog from New Iberia, La., named Max, is vying for the record of world's oldest dog. Owner Janelle Derouen said Max marked his 26th birthday on Aug. 9. She said Guinness World Records officials were reviewing documents to verify his age.

目前，来自路易斯安那州新伊比利亚的一只名为马克斯的狗正在竞争世界最长寿狗的纪录。它的主人詹妮尔•德劳恩称，马克斯于今年8月9日度过了他26岁的生日。她称吉尼斯世界纪录的官员们正在审核材料，以证实其年龄。

When asked for the secret to her dog's long life, Derouen said she was shocked he's still with her.

在被问及狗长寿的秘诀时，德劳恩说她自己也感到很惊讶。

"I have five kids, and all my kids are grown and gone," she said. "Now my grandkids are playing with this dog."

她说：“我有五个孩子，都长大离开家了，现在我的孙子们又在和它玩。”
