This 14-Year-Old Pittie Is Aging Backwards | The Dodo

[@user-uw5jn6tu6q]

Oh my goodness, I'm crying. Don't tell me LOVE can't make an old dog decide that life is NOT over for him. Just to have someone care enough...just enough.

[@Bobbie2]

That is true.I rescued a fourteen year old pomeranian two years ago and he acts just like a puppy now❤

[@Theleaddog]

Just enough love is the tiniest amount. We all have just enough plus!

[@user-uw5jn6tu6q]

@Theleaddog I meant just enough to DO something and then it grows.

“He’s my Christmas present!” Best Christmas someone could give oneself. Big present of unconditional love. 💞

My dog Angus lived to twenty. Our best years were actually the last ones as we watched the children go off to college. A lot of love and comfort there. I miss Angus every day and I regret nothing about it. Angus was family. Australian Shepard-Boston Terrier mix of all things. Smart, funny and could dig an escape tunnel like Hogans Hero’s.

Dogs suck and provide no beneficial interaction with humans apart from those lacking self esteem.

OMG!! I think he would be SO depressed w/o y'all. Please be his forevers! There really is no better home for him!

[@bethchisholm4858]

I'm in tears I lost my pittie one year ago this month and he was 14 so this just hit home for me. Thank you for giving him a forever home in his senior years. So happy for Larry

[@blythegirl4348]

Please please adopt another pittie soon. The shelters are overflowing with them esp. in California. There is one waiting for you!

[@dc4825]

@@blythegirl4348 Why do you keep providing demonstrably false arguments to your followers? Pitbulls have no place in our society as no adult can guarantee 100% safety of the dogs around anyone else. I'm struggling to think of another breed so deadly... But you do you sister, power!

[@blythegirl4348]

@@dc4825 I don't have a KZbin channel so you're wrong there. Why are you watching The Dodo story about a pit bull if you hate them so much! People who watch this channel love them and all other breeds. You seem like a miserable human being. Go spread your hate and misery somewhere else! Animals are pure love but not you apparently.

[@monacea777]

​@@dc4825​Pitbulls can be aggressive because people made them that way intentionally. They have been breeded, raised, and trained to be aggressive dogs. They are not born killers. And what about this "guaranteed safety"? Are you aware that safety can't be 100 percent guaranteed around any dog? This isn't about pitbulls. And all dogs deserve a place in society. Stop demonizing dogs when the issue stems from us.

Me too we lost our almost 17 years old paw son who pass away before Christmas 2024 .. he was very strong and very protective of me cuz I am deaf mommy ... he was pit bull ... that was lots of love from my old boy .... ❤❤❤❤❤

He may be 14 human years old.. but his spirit is still as lively as when he was a puppy, i bet. Dogs once again showing how pure a soul can be~

You know they age the same as every other living organism, right?

@@dc4825explain?????

[@lorrainefryer]

Especially when dogs are young, they age rapidly compared to humans. A one-year-old dog is similar to a 30-year-old human. A four-year-old dog is similar to a 52-year-old human. Then by seven years old, dog aging slows.2 Jul 2020

My fiance and I adopted two cats who had both been abused to some level we'll never know about. One of them was overweight, and had such a bad hip she could barely walk. Started putting glucosamine on her food every day, trying to get her to play, we even massaged her like a hip every night before bed. We always said she aged backwards after that time. She looked better ten years after we got her than she did when we originally got her. Started running and playing, etc. Her orangie best friend helped a lot too I think. It took time but it was sooooo worth it.

"Grandpa Swag." Amazing.

Larry was definitely a firefighter in a past life 😂

I always tell people that the dog you see at the shelter isn’t the same dog you’ll see when they go home with you…a lot of dogs shut down when they’re in shelters, but when they get home, they blossom so much! 🥰❤️🐶

My heart aches for him and the empty spot on my bed makes me miss him even more. He was the same color black with white chest and white socks. He was a beautiful boy. Thank you to all that give senior dogs of any breed a second chance. You are all so strong to take this on especially when you don't know how much time you will have. Much love and respect. ❤😘

I'm so sorry for your loss. THIS IS NOT A PUTBULL btw he is a AMERICAN BULLY pits are taller and more lean bullies are shorter and stocky with that big apple head.
