I've heard that due to better nutrition and medical care, a number of larger breed dogs are living longer than they used to. Sam died at thirteenish, and despite the cancer and the diabetes, he was active and healthy-looking to the end. Still, a seventeen year old Lab looking and acting like a three-year-old kind of stretches credulity.
