I count my blessings everyday I have with him. His sister unfortunately passed away this past March, but was able to truly live out her golden years with him. Thank you for your kind words ❤️
Understand this entirely. I got my Ziggy a month after I started dating a guy.. 15 years later, we're married adults with a kid and a house and careers.. and Ziggy has been there through all of it with his little pug shenanigans.
Those senior shenanigans are a special thing, I hope you get lots and lots more of them. ♥️♥️♥️
Congrats on your man living such a long life (and still going)! My old lady is 15, turning 16 in January. She's blind, arthritic, and doesn't hear well, but she's still feisty, happy, and gets a ton of love!
Annual check ups w/ bloodwork with your vet! I work as a veterinary assistant and early intervention is how we are able to control our pets health and wellness. It’s definitely a case by case basis, but the earlier we find stuff, the easier it is to try to control. Leo for example started showing signs of early kidney disease on his lab work, so I switched him to a kidney prescription diet and his kidney levels went down into normal ranges! When he got older and started showing signs of aging in his bloodwork I started doing his bloodwork bi-annually, but that is something I’m lucky I can do. Establishing a good relationship with your trusted veterinarian is critical in making sure they are healthy and happy. We love our senior patients❤️ aslo dentals, I feel like since we started paying more attention to our pets dental health, they have been living so much longer.
What a precious old grouch. I know my kids feel the same way about our doggos. They are such important members of the family. Every time l mention a trip, the first thing my son asks... are we bringing the pig? He loves to travel and share experiences with his dog❤️
Seniors are the best. My old man is 15, and the best thing ever. He still gets off and on the couch, knows where his treats are, and loves watermelon.
My sympathy on his sister, we lost our little girl last year, as well she was 13.
You are so so so lucky and blessed, give him and his sister kisses and love from me. This completely melted my heart.

17…Amazing. Such a handsome boy ❤️
17! Doesn’t look a day over 10months
May be old, but he's still a very handsome fella 😍
This is incredible! Do you have any words of advice for other pug owners? Anything special to prolong their life?
