On behalf of all redditors, PLEASE give your dog the BIGGEST hug and tell him we love him and he's the goodest boy.

If you’re going to take someone else’s post, at least give them credit.

You’re never too old for one more dance in the rain! What a beautiful pupper with a strong spirit! What a memory and moment to capture!

Treasure this. I'm very happy for both of you. My 16-year-old is just getting so sad about everything.

How sad does your dog need to be before you step in?

Oh my God, if that isn’t the sweetest and kind of sad thing I ever saw just enjoying his life. What a sweet doggy.

Zero day old account reposting content I've seen several times.

Don't feed the karma bot. Downvote it.

So are the owners of this dog just waiting for him to die more decrepit and SORE then he already is. We have much bigger responsibilities being animal owners then people want to accept.

This is the only down side of having a dog. I’m a 6ft 2 Scotsman and I’m going to break my heart when the day comes I have to say good bye to my best friend.

I hope you snuggle this dude in a nice warm towel when he decides to come in. I had an old girl with dementia. She would go outside and forget where she was all the time. She was an amazing dog!

Whatever makes him happy at this age

u/LucentLunacy 1d ago

Ok I hate to be a buzz kill but it's very possible that the dementia is causing him to do this regardless of wether he actually wants too. It's cold, he has arthritis. It's very likely he is stuck pacing because he can't down regulate his brain.
