The vet informed me that my Jack russel puppy "Reggie" had a heart murmer. It never affected him till he reached 13 when I was told he had heart disease which led to kidney disease. He passed away aged 15 and I truly believe without his illness he would still be here because he didn't want to leave me. He was my best friend and I feel so lost and vulnerable with out him. A year has passed and I miss him everyday.
Sorry for your loss. Unless one has loved a pet, they don't understand that other side of love and compassion. My cat passed away and it took me several months to move on.
I am so sorry for your loss 😔 I am sure you will be together once in heaven 🙏🏻❤️🐶🙌 the bible say it clearly in Romans chapter 8! I loss in my live 17 furbabys and i cant wait to meet them all together in heaven. But as long as my life on earth go on God will give me a best friend as an furbaby ❤️🐶🐱🐭❤️🙏🏻🙌, without life is not possible to me. God bless you 🙏🏻❤️🐶❤️
That's because dog's give you unconditional love. They will never cheat, get angry, abuse you, or walk out on you. Dog's are better than 90% of humans imho.
I too, never grieved as hard or as long as I did, and still do now and then, after the death of my beloved bulldog who died of cancer. So I truly understand what you are saying.
@StacyMarshall-wh5qq You really never get over their deaths. I still can't talk about my previous dog without tears running down my face. My sister did therapy for 3 months after her dog's death. It's heartbreaking that their lives are so short.
We had a chihuahua family member that lived 18 short years. She grew up with my children. She has been gone 12 long years and we miss her, Isabella, everyday!❤️🩹
My sister's Chihuahua, "Precious", lived for 18 years. She was the Queen of the house, and dominated a 110 lbs Weimaraner and a 100 lbs Boxer, amongst other dogs.
@@wonkothesane8691 110lb Weimaraner? That must of been one hell of an overweight Weimaraner. Also 100lb boxer? What was your sister feeding them, Steroids?
We had to put down my wife's Maltese at 11 years his heart and kidneys gave up but his will didn't! He licked the tears from my wife's face as he held him the last time at the vets. Bear was a loving and kind hearted little fellow !
My daughter's dog, we gave her at 8yo. Blessed patches a retriever lived for her, followed her to adulthood and quietly passed after 18 faithful loving years. I cry writing this.
I just lost my Bichon Frise one week before his 17th birthday. The only dog that every single time I would look at him his tail would wag at me! I kid you not. It was never lost on me as I had 2 other Bichons who never wagged their tails at me. My Dodger was my baby who I can't hardly wait to see in heaven some day.
What is your secret. I must know. My yellow lab is 12 years old and can't climb up the stairs anymore nor can he play fetch. I know it's probably too late but if I have another lab I want to know what I can do better the next time around for his diet and exercise.
My close friend and his wife had to put their Malamute to sleep last night . He was 11 years old and his back legs had gone . They are beside themselves with grief . He was buried today in their garden . A great dog and I shall miss him dearly as well . RIP 'NOOK' or as I called him 'MONKEY' . 😪🏴
All the furbabies they are unique, precious, lovely. I treated my greyhound like princess , like my daughter. They are priceless and larger than my life!!!!!!!
My beloved German Shepherd, Blitz... aka, Blitzer... lived 15.5 yrs, Birthdate: January, 15, 1978 - late May 1993 naturally of old age the day after my x-husband came to love on him knowing it was his end days; although, Blitz saw him often when he came to pick-up or drop-off our children. A few days after I took Blitz at 8 wks old home with me... Blitz met my boyfriend (my husband 6 yrs later) who had a Black Lab, Tobi, who was 3 months old and they became lifelong best friends and 'brothers'. I was 17 yrs old, Blitz was 8 wks old, when I first met Blitz who 'chose' me that day out of a litter of 15 beautiful pups to which he was the runt. Blitz was contantly playfully growling and tugging at my jean pant legs. These pups were the offspring of my previous beloved German Shepherd, Samboy, who had ended up in my yard in the country and chose me as his friend and 5.5 yrs later was tragically shot by a farmer mistaking him for a coyote. I had trained Samboy from a Military Guard Dog training book... which I then trained Blitz... Both boys weren't vicious unless danger was sensed. They were highly intelligent, loyal, beautiful, protective and my/our beloved family member companions' who went everywhere with me camping at Mt. Rainier and in Montana, fishing, hiking, exploring the Eagle Lakes, biking, running, swimming, sporting events, goin to the park that followed where the mighty Columbia River flows, etc, etc.... we were constantly goin somewhere for fun adventures. I was never afraid living alone when divorced as Blitz guarded me and my children faithfully... I still have Blitz close to me in a beautiful Egyptian style urn... Tobi's, Samboy's and Blitz's genes carried on to this day; as well as, Blitz was a father of beautiful pups from a German Shepherd, Misty... We love you, Samboy, Tobi and Blitzer... Our Souls' Entwined for an Eternity... 🦋💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🦋
Very touching I have a female German shepherd Mia . She is super smart and such a loyal dog she will be turning 5 soon hopefully she lives a good 15 years even then it won’t be long enough
@@erinjoy5625 he was born in Naples Italy. We shipped him to Florida and moved to California. He lived to the ripe old age of 22 then. I actually have a video of him in his old age.
I got a rescue dog from a puppy mill. She was 8 yrs old. Jack Russell Cross. She is now 23 and though blind and deaf she if doing great. Never been sick.
I wish they had visiting hours at the 🌈 bridge. I miss my little boy so much. He saved me when my daughter died and I cry because I couldn't save him when he needed to be saved. Even though I know I did everything I could when he got sick. I still feel like I let him down because I couldn't save him after he saved me !!! He was my best best friend and I miss him with all my heart and soul 🐶💔💔💔💔💔💔
I had a Shar-pei Lab mix. She was beautiful, loyal, independent, protective, and incredibly intelligent. What else is there to say to those who have lost their wonderful companions? I miss her everyday.
I have a sharpei who's 13...he's having difficulty and my heart is broken because we are in the early stages of discussing his final days.... love him so much
Had a German Shepherd when i was a kid, she lived 15 yrs. And an Alaskan Malamute x Siberian Husky 13yrs ago & she lived 12 yrs. Both awesome, loyal companions & friends. Miss them dearly....
I have a beloved Irish Wolfhound and I am thankful for everyday I spend with him. Short lifespans only means I work extra hard to make sure the quality of our time together is invaluable.
My German shepherd was 18 years old, my childhood friend.. she passed away a day earlier to my birthday in December 2022. I’ll always love her and keep her in my heart till my last breath-(Sabby 2005-2022💔😔
My Jack Russell lived to just short of twenty years. Finally had to have him put down as his hearing went and his eyesight was beginning to fail. Other than that he was really fit and would still rather unsuccessfully try to chase rabbits. Started getting distressed if he couldn’t locate me. Fantastic dog a really sad day. Vet came to our house and administered the shot in the woods ( happy hunting ground ) lying on his favourite blanket, surrounded by the family, stuffing his face with his favourite Cheddar( Quicks ). It’s how I’d like to go.😢
My Rottweiler/ Corgi lived to be 15 years old. They make good watch dogs and cattle dogs and very smart. Can do calculations in mind where the ball is going to land and very playful loving nature. I miss him. His name was Conrad.
Watching this in bed with my 2 rescue dogs and getting a bit teary-eyed. I have a pitbull mix and an akita/ treeing walker coonhound mix. (The shelter said he's a beagle mix, but the Wisdom Panel test shows that he's mostly akita/coonhound mix. Not sure how accurate the test is). He's got short ears, is tricolor (black, white, and brown), with the fluffy, curly akita tail. Love my doggos!!! 🐶🐕🐾❤
Mine was 16.5 years old . Had her to put to sleep because she suffered from alzheimer. That happened 5 years ago and I am still mourning. What a funny dog she was.
My mom has a little mutt who is 18 and will be 19 this year.. he hasn’t been doing so great lately though. Chihuahua/pug/pekinese/shih tzu mix. We found him for free at a yard sale many years ago ❤
My Yorkshire Terrier is still with me. He is the best. We got through Covid-19 together sheltering in place. I can not imagine life without him. I had dogs 🐕 that passed and i was so heart broken 💔 . They are truly mans/ women's best friends. Life is so much better with a dog.
Hi Alma, I used to have a Pomeranian- Fox terrier mix, the prettiest, most loving, most intelligent dog ever ( I'm biased, lol!) and she lived to be 15 years old. Enjoy your time with your pup.💖🇮🇪
Мой боксёр прожил 8 лет. Красавец, медалист, самый мой любимый пёс. Потом были ещё собаки, но забыть Норда не могу. И завести ещё одного боксёра не смогла. Такого же как он, точно не будет. А другого мне не надо.
My last dog was a Brindle Corgi named Huckle. He was the most wonderful dog I could have asked for. He died 25 years ago and I still miss him terribly.
My beautiful and mischiveous happy mongrel died at the age of 18. I still remember him slightly waggin his tail while I was singing "his" song in My arms. He lived a long life and he knew he was loved (and still is).
I do understand you. Is really hard to let them go. If this helps you, in my culture, we believe dogs would guide us through the underworld on the way to the heavens. They will play and have fun until our arrival, so can continue our way.
My heart dog was Lab/Newfoundland and lived 10 of her 13 years with me and my daughter. She saved us both a couple of times. 💗ROMP IN PAWRADISE TEMPIANN💗
My last 2 dogs were stray dogs. The first one I had to put him down at the age of 21. The second one died a year ago, at the age of 17 and a half. Now I got a beautiful 8 months old puppy, a mixed breed of labrador and border collie. I really hope to have her in my life for many many years.
My pomeranian lived a few weeks shy of his 18 bday. I think the key to his long life was happiness. He ate people food and was trained well enough that he hardly ever was on leash. Rip Koda
Jasper our Bichon lived for 14.5 years. While I miss him I think his little life must have transfered to the baby multipoo we now have (Scooter is his name) and wow he fills our home with joy. I will never forget you Jasper and thank-you for bringing us joy while you were here
Recently, a close friend lost her 1st ever dog after 13 years. She said she doesn’t want another one because it’s to hard when they pass. I told her not to focus on that one bad day, but the 13 yrs of joy she had with him. A week later, she called me and asked if I would go with her to the local shelter to “look” at dogs. It’s been a month since she gave Stuwie(she’s a Family Guy fan) his forever home. She still misses Buckey, but absolutely loves Stuwie. She thanked me for convincing her to get another dog.
Ti capisco benissimo anche io ho avuto una bastardina che ha vissuto 17 anni e come dici tu peccato che vivono così poco sono adorabili e ti amano incondizionatamente mi manca un casino vorrei tanto trovare una come lei ma sono unici lo sappiamo x noi sono indelebili x sempre nel cuore speriamo di poterci consolare con qualquno di speciale bisognoso d'affetto🙏🙏🙏😇🐕🦺🐶💕🦮💞🐕❤️🐶💋
Mongrels have a lifespan of upto 17yrs,and as much as they die old, they simply don't get complications in their later years. Very simple and loyal ones to keep.....
As a kennel manager I never knew what to tell adoptive parents. Our clinic vet said to combine the breeds for the best approximation. On this particular video, according to my dog breed book..."expected" lifespans are off in both directions & some very popular breeds are missing. My current crosses are 1/2 French Bull 1/2 Chinese Pug. They're siblings & stuck up each others butts. They just turned 10 & look like baby silver faced seal pups. I've no idea how long I'll have w/them...I just hope they die together because even when they're separate for just 10 minutes, they cry bloody murder. Have a blessed weekend ahead, ~ Covah
My dachshund lived 11 years. at 11, she swallowed a bone and survived a complicated operation. She recovered and was in great shape. only became deaf. to my grief, he was run over by a car and died. but according to his physical condition, he would have boldly lived another 4-5 years, if not more. Take care of your pets!
According to another video they live 5-7 yrs. If it weren't for my physical-impairments, I'd love to have 1. In my tiny town, one of the employees at our elementary school owns one. She's the 1st Irish Wolfhound I've seen in 16 yrs. Take care, ~ Covah
My little Jack Stimpy died about a month ago, he was 18 years old. I had him from 6 weeks old. I miss him so much, l have a little cry every day, l still have his bed in the front room, l can't get rid of it.
10/13 for a jack russel? I just had one pass at 23 years old, his daughter is 14 and still very healthy and know quite a few more that are over 15 and still in good health.
My sister had a gorgeous long haired chihuahua called Bob Gorgeous little morsel. He literally was jumping around one day then got sick over 2 days and died. RIP our little mate. He was 21 going g on 22.
My love to you dear Mary ❤, I feel your pain.We lost our dear "little Man" Dennis at New Year aged 16 1/2. ....the dearest snazzy little boy . you could hope to meet, leaving a huge hole in our lives. You and I will always have our cherished memories⁶
I hate to even think of being without my best and most loyal friend, she is 6 yrs old a pit lab mix , i love her so so much , i would be totally lost and heart broken without her. MY BEST GOOD FRIEND
My little pure bred Shih Tzu lived well beyond the 10/14 years stated here, I had to have him put to sleep at 17 years, 7 weeks, he was very sprightly, and often mistaken for a pup, due to his neglect for the first 5 years until I got him, but went downhil in the last month. He was my baby, and I still miss him terribly.
Our Lhasa Apso past right before Christmas. He was almost 17 years old. We had him since he was 3. I miss coming in the house and him not greeting me at the door.
The oldest dog in history is an Australian Cattle Dog, it lived to be 24-28 years old?if I remember correctly. They live a long time. The oldest living dog is a Chihuahua in it's 20's if I remember. I didn't see them on the list either....I could have missed them.
I saw a video in my feed about a 30 y.o. Lab. I'm not certain how "expected" these ages are. As a kennel manager I had to basically memorize lifespans on dog breeds. Not only are a few missing on this video, they're off by many yrs. in both directions.
@@InsomniacsManiacs I just saw that story....it looks great if that's it's true age. That story of that dog is amazing. My dog is 16 years old. It's hard to imagine her living 5 more years let alone 14 more.
@@shawnwhalen8314 my neighbor’s Pitt bull just turned 17 a couple month ago, I can see he is getting slower and a bit skinnier but he is still going, she had him before her kids, they grew with him, it’s going to be devastating for them when he passes, it will be like losing a sibling!
This is why I generally go with chihuahuas. 18 years. Just got a border collie because they’re not over bred. I see now what I’ve been missing but DAMN I miss every dog I’ve had
Got an emotional/needy German Pionter 14y/o now still runs around like a puppy when excited. Just had to put down my 17 y/o ginger cat Olley,...he was smart, fierce and super loyal. He followed me everywhere at home inside and out. I miss that little ginger ninja.
Street dogs/stray dogs that grew up in the streets are the best. They develop a very strong immune system. I adopted two when they showed up uninvited to my house, when I was living in México. One is 15 years old and the other one about 14. They look a little like Labradors, but they’re both mutts. They have never gotten sick. They’re still very strong and kicking. They’re very grateful, and so am I. I like to say that they adopted me.
Our female Siberian Husky will be 14 in June after some medical issues and surgery last year she is going strong, we walk her twice a day for at least 3 miles and she is one a Hill’s Science Diet plan and we have cut out almost all bad treats and human food scraps/licks. She has lost about 10 pounds which really has perked her up.
I remember a neighbor of mines said he was going to stop feeding his dog human food because he’s a vegan and the cooking of meat everyday for his dogs was disgusting him a lot , my dogs trainer told me to cook for my dog and I said no I buy him very recommended dog food and he has a bunch of non sugary dog treats he enjoys all his stuff and doesn’t even bat an eye to human food it’s off limits.
My best buddy smokie a chihuahua lived for 17 years just passed away. I miss him soooooo much never thought it would hurt so bad when he passed he was my world a big chunk of my heart is now missing. 🐾♥️🥀
I’ve owned nine St. Bernards. Got my first one when I was 18. I’m now 66. Twice I had two at one time and once I lost a rescue after I had him only four months. Numbers six,seven and eight all lived 8 - 9 years. Current wonderful girl is four and a half. It is a tragedy they have such short lives. But, I wouldn’t trade the time I had with any of them for anything.
I had mini Yorkie that live 16 years. My brother law boss bought his girlfriend a Yorkie for her Birthday. He didn't know that she was allergic to dogs. So my brother law took the dog off his hands and gave it to his daughter who was not even 1 year old yet. Unfortunately the 8 weeks old Yorkie didn't like kids. It took a liking to me and i took liking to it. He slept with me, he follow me. He love to play fletch, tug of war. Every night before we go to bed i alway got 4 or 5 licks before he go lay on his side of bed. The day i had to put him down was hardest day of my life😢 He was laying on the table prep for him to go to sleep. I put my head to his, he gave me a bunch of licks to say good buy. It was the hardest i ever cry. I had him cremated and he in family room with his photos. ❤❤❤❤
I just got "gifted" a pitbull boxer mix. My former dog was a 15 pound lapdog that was so mellow most people thought he was an ornament toy. The bull boxer is the complete opposite of that. Nevertheless he's still a dog that's loving and grew on us like a fungus. LoL.
Well, that was WAY off. Both my Jack Russell's lived to 17. One of them shouldn't have made it past a year due to his heart condition. Then when he was 10, he also developed diabetes, which with all of his other medical conditions, meant that he would be lucky if he made it to 12. So he really defied the odds.
We only got 5ys with our boy Sammy, freakin cancer required me to make the tough decision to let him go. For the last few weeks we were in and out of the vet office every few days.....its been almost 9 yrs and just now starting to think about finding a new buddy. I think what keeps me from actually doing it is the thought of having to go through the loss again, the suck factor of it is off the charts.
Nice to see I lost my Jasper 10 years ago he was a retired Greyhound I had him from 2 years old till he was 18 years old 4 months 6 days .right up to the day he was loved broke my heart but 3 days after I went and gave a home to my new boy a Greyhound he was 3 years old he just had his 13 th birthday:)
“The only thing wrong with dogs is that they don’t live long enough.” -Agnes Sligh Turnbull 😞
Yeah. If I ever have a chance to have a chat with God, I need to chat with Him about that issue...
They give so much love, that that they burn out early :(
Dogs don't live long enough because they r trying to teach us what they already know. Love each other ❤️!!!
As well that the stay loyal even when their owner abuses and harms them, really sad honestly.
Amen to that.

I am so sorry for your loss 😔
I am sure you will be together once in heaven 🙏🏻❤️🐶🙌 the bible say it clearly in Romans chapter 8!

I miss my darling Jack Russell so much. He died at 17 and left me with the best memories and a broken heart.
Dogs are a gift from God. They are forever friends. 🐶
Dogs are products of human ingenuity, intelligence, and selective breeding/ evolution. Gods have nothing to do.
Our fur babies do not live long enough. Treasure your time with them..as it flies by way to fast..... ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very very unfortunate that a man's most faithful animal has been give a life span of about 12 years while a tortoise 100 years 😢

I too, never grieved as hard or as long as I did, and still do now and then, after the death of my beloved bulldog who died of cancer. So I truly understand what you are saying.
Yep, me too!
Other dog owners have told me that they cried more or grieved more when their dog died then when a family member died. I find this to be true.
I have many times it’s true
100000% true. Dogs are way better then most of your family
Just speaking for myself I cried so hard when my dog Bear died I was never so hurt by his death he was like my child I miss him until this day

I am sorry for your loss sincerely.
I just lost my Bichon Frise one week before his 17th birthday. The only dog that every single time I would look at him his tail would wag at me! I kid you not. It was never lost on me as I had 2 other Bichons who never wagged their tails at me. My Dodger was my baby who I can't hardly wait to see in heaven some day.
So I have a Bichon and he never wags his tail. I thought it was because he’s just old. Interesting to see other Bichons are like this too.
My Bichon just died in March after his seventeenth birthday
You will😊

I wish they had visiting hours at the 🌈 bridge. I miss my little boy so much. He saved me when my daughter died and I cry because I couldn't save him when he needed to be saved. Even though I know I did everything I could when he got sick. I still feel like I let him down because I couldn't save him after he saved me !!! He was my best best friend and I miss him with all my heart and soul 🐶💔💔💔💔💔💔
I had a Shar-pei Lab mix. She was beautiful, loyal, independent, protective, and incredibly intelligent. What else is there to say to those who have lost their wonderful companions? I miss her everyday.
I have a sharpei who's 13...he's having difficulty and my heart is broken because we are in the early stages of discussing his final days.... love him so much
Had a German Shepherd when i was a kid, she lived 15 yrs. And an Alaskan Malamute x Siberian Husky 13yrs ago & she lived 12 yrs.
Both awesome, loyal companions & friends. Miss them dearly....
It's so heartbreaking when they have to leave us. I know 💔💔🐾🐾
My darling Jack Russell Terrier lived till he was 17.
If dogs have a heaven ...I hope to go there...miss you Foxy
I have a beloved Irish Wolfhound and I am thankful for everyday I spend with him. Short lifespans only means I work extra hard to make sure the quality of our time together is invaluable.
My German shepherd was 18 years old, my childhood friend.. she passed away a day earlier to my birthday in December 2022. I’ll always love her and keep her in my heart till my last breath-(Sabby 2005-2022💔😔
My Jack Russell lived to just short of twenty years. Finally had to have him put down as his hearing went and his eyesight was beginning to fail. Other than that he was really fit and would still rather unsuccessfully try to chase rabbits. Started getting distressed if he couldn’t locate me. Fantastic dog a really sad day. Vet came to our house and administered the shot in the woods ( happy hunting ground ) lying on his favourite blanket, surrounded by the family, stuffing his face with his favourite Cheddar( Quicks ). It’s how I’d like to go.😢
My Jack Russell lived to be 16 1/2. I wasn’t going to get another one, but after a year of missing Chloe, I had to get a new girl. ☺️
I lost my furbaby Peaches to cancer 3 weeks ago 😢 💔 she was eight years old
Please cherish them ♥️♥️♥️
Why can’t dogs live to be 30 years old At least 😪
So true
Usually longest is 15 yrs
We had a black Labrador and she lived to be 19 years old. The vet that put her to sleep said he had never seen one that old.
❤
My JR is 14 years old. He's still active and up to no good😂Love him so much!!❤
My Rottweiler/ Corgi lived to be 15 years old. They make good watch dogs and cattle dogs and very smart. Can do calculations in mind where the ball is going to land and very playful loving nature. I miss him. His name was Conrad.
Watching this in bed with my 2 rescue dogs and getting a bit teary-eyed. I have a pitbull mix and an akita/ treeing walker coonhound mix. (The shelter said he's a beagle mix, but the Wisdom Panel test shows that he's mostly akita/coonhound mix. Not sure how accurate the test is). He's got short ears, is tricolor (black, white, and brown), with the fluffy, curly akita tail. Love my doggos!!! 🐶🐕🐾❤
Loved all my pet's always broke my heart when they died I still miss them .❤
Jack Russel only 13? Hahaha! Have seen MANY, which were much older, up to 18!!! Mine is 11,5 year and jumps like a puppy.
Mine was 16.5 years old . Had her to put to sleep because she suffered from alzheimer. That happened 5 years ago and I am still mourning. What a funny dog she was.
These are averages.
My mom has a little mutt who is 18 and will be 19 this year.. he hasn’t been doing so great lately though. Chihuahua/pug/pekinese/shih tzu mix. We found him for free at a yard sale many years ago ❤
Some people BUY a dog because of what the dog can do for them.
Other people ADOPT a dog because of what they can do for the dog.
The Boston terrier being exactly 14 years hit home for me, my childhood Boston had a stroke and we had to put him down when he was 14
When I've had a hard day at work, I always receive love from my 2 cattle dogs. Snippy and Saddie Sue. WOOF
My Yorkshire Terrier is still with me. He is the best. We got through Covid-19 together sheltering in place. I can not imagine life without him.
I had dogs 🐕 that passed and i was so heart broken 💔 . They are truly mans/ women's best friends. Life is so much better with a dog.
We had a Parson Russell terrier. She was delightful and lived for 18 years.
Hope mine lives that long. He's a healthy boy. Such an angel 😇
My Jack Russell's lived to be 18. And still broke my heart to lose them.
So glad to see that mini poodles and Pomeranians live so long. I have a pom-poodle mix. She's the love of my life ♥️.
Hi Alma, I used to have a Pomeranian- Fox terrier mix, the prettiest, most loving, most intelligent dog ever ( I'm biased, lol!) and she lived to be 15 years old. Enjoy your time with your pup.💖🇮🇪
@@lauraswann5543 My little girl is 11. I do appreciate every day with her.
@@lauraswann5543 Fifteen is a nice long life. I'm glad for you she lived so long!
How long does a springer spaniel live thank you
Chihuahua: immortal (in our hearts)
Мой боксёр прожил 8 лет. Красавец, медалист, самый мой любимый пёс. Потом были ещё собаки, но забыть Норда не могу. И завести ещё одного боксёра не смогла. Такого же как он, точно не будет. А другого мне не надо.
My last dog was a Brindle Corgi named Huckle. He was the most wonderful dog I could have asked for. He died 25 years ago and I still miss him terribly.
My uncles Jack Russell terrier lived until the ripe old age of 19. A great dog.
They never live long enough and are indeed truly our best friends.
My beautiful and mischiveous happy mongrel died at the age of 18. I still remember him slightly waggin his tail while I was singing "his" song in My arms. He lived a long life and he knew he was loved (and still is).
Did I miss the chihuahua....As far as I have heard they are in fact the longest living of any breed of dog..
I didn't see it either. Mine is still going strong at 14.
The longest living will always be the Mutt.
Mine is 14,his dad was a mini pin,great dog but his time is running out.
I had a Chihauhau that passed at 17 years old. No health problems, died in her sleep.😢
Chihuahua living to 20 years...
I just lost my Shih Tzu “Prince” 2/4/23.
11 years old.
It’s not the same in my house, I don’t have the words to explain how I miss him❤
I do understand you. Is really hard to let them go. If this helps you, in my culture, we believe dogs would guide us through the underworld on the way to the heavens. They will play and have fun until our arrival, so can continue our way.
My dog Linda made it till 17
Still miss her
My heart dog was Lab/Newfoundland and lived 10 of her 13 years with me and my daughter. She saved us both a couple of times. 💗ROMP IN PAWRADISE TEMPIANN💗
My last 2 dogs were stray dogs. The first one I had to put him down at the age of 21. The second one died a year ago, at the age of 17 and a half. Now I got a beautiful 8 months old puppy, a mixed breed of labrador and border collie. I really hope to have her in my life for many many years.
My Mom had this cross breed and she lived till 18.
@2:22 BLOODHOUND NEXT TO AKITA .. MY LAST AMERICAN AKITA WAS A BLOODHOUND/AKITA MIX .. 140LBS AWESOME DOG!
My golden retriever died from leuchemia at the age of 8, 10 years ago... remember the day when he passed away... i still love you Leo!
My pomeranian lived a few weeks shy of his 18 bday. I think the key to his long life was happiness. He ate people food and was trained well enough that he hardly ever was on leash. Rip Koda
My pom is 17 and is the same way-people food and walks the neighborhood beside me without a leash. I love every single day with her.
My labrador lil is nearly 16 years old in May 2023 and her daughter was 13 years and 5 months old when she passed ❤️
Jasper our Bichon lived for 14.5 years. While I miss him I think his little life must have transfered to the baby multipoo we now have (Scooter is his name) and wow he fills our home with joy. I will never forget you Jasper and thank-you for bringing us joy while you were here
Recently, a close friend lost her 1st ever dog after 13 years. She said she doesn’t want another one because it’s to hard when they pass. I told her not to focus on that one bad day, but the 13 yrs of joy she had with him. A week later, she called me and asked if I would go with her to the local shelter to “look” at dogs. It’s been a month since she gave Stuwie(she’s a Family Guy fan) his forever home. She still misses Buckey, but absolutely loves Stuwie. She thanked me for convincing her to get another dog.
18 añitos vivió mi perro, un chucho, qué pena que vivan tan poquito
Ti capisco benissimo anche io ho avuto una bastardina che ha vissuto 17 anni e come dici tu peccato che vivono così poco sono adorabili e ti amano incondizionatamente mi manca un casino vorrei tanto trovare una come lei ma sono unici lo sappiamo x noi sono indelebili x sempre nel cuore speriamo di poterci consolare con qualquno di speciale bisognoso d'affetto🙏🙏🙏😇🐕🦺🐶💕🦮💞🐕❤️🐶💋
Mongrels have a lifespan of upto 17yrs,and as much as they die old, they simply don't get complications in their later years. Very simple and loyal ones to keep.....
As a kennel manager I never knew what to tell adoptive parents. Our clinic vet said to combine the breeds for the best approximation. On this particular video, according to my dog breed book..."expected" lifespans are off in both directions & some very popular breeds are missing.
My current crosses are 1/2 French Bull 1/2 Chinese Pug. They're siblings & stuck up each others butts. They just turned 10 & look like baby silver faced seal pups. I've no idea how long I'll have w/them...I just hope they die together because even when they're separate for just 10 minutes, they cry bloody murder. Have a blessed weekend ahead, ~ Covah
My dachshund lived 11 years. at 11, she swallowed a bone and survived a complicated operation. She recovered and was in great shape. only became deaf. to my grief, he was run over by a car and died. but according to his physical condition, he would have boldly lived another 4-5 years, if not more. Take care of your pets!
All our jack Russell's with one exception lived to 17 +.
Fantastic brave funny little dogs that live by the mantra of
Engulf and devourer!!!
My Irish Wolfhound Vučko lived for 13.5 years. In the end his legs and heart gave out at the same time.
According to another video they live 5-7 yrs. If it weren't for my physical-impairments, I'd love to have 1. In my tiny town, one of the employees at our elementary school owns one. She's the 1st Irish Wolfhound I've seen in 16 yrs. Take care, ~ Covah
Our two Jack Russels lived to they were 19, same as out bitsa of everything, and cat, praying our other Jack Russels live as long
All my Irish Wolfhounds made it pass 12 years. We have a big farm and they can run and play all day. Plus they were fed great food.❤
My little Jack Stimpy died about a month ago, he was 18 years old. I had him from 6 weeks old. I miss him so much, l have a little cry every day, l still have his bed in the front room, l can't get rid of it.
10/13 for a jack russel? I just had one pass at 23 years old, his daughter is 14 and still very healthy and know quite a few more that are over 15 and still in good health.
My sister had a gorgeous long haired chihuahua called Bob
Gorgeous little morsel. He literally was jumping around one day then got sick over 2 days and died. RIP our little mate. He was 21 going g on 22.
Bob is still with you
💗💗💗
My love to you dear Mary ❤, I feel your pain.We lost our dear "little Man" Dennis at New Year aged 16 1/2. ....the dearest snazzy little boy . you could hope to meet, leaving a huge hole in our lives. You and I will always have our cherished memories⁶
I had my boy Ace (BISCHON FRISE) for 15 years.I miss my boy.I grieved for months. He came to me in a few dreams to check on me!
I hate to even think of being without my best and most loyal friend, she is 6 yrs old a pit lab mix , i love her so so much , i would be totally lost and heart broken without her. MY BEST GOOD FRIEND
Had many jack Russell's. 15 16 + age very common.
My little pure bred Shih Tzu lived well beyond the 10/14 years stated here, I had to have him put to sleep at 17 years, 7 weeks, he was very sprightly, and often mistaken for a pup, due to his neglect for the first 5 years until I got him, but went downhil in the last month. He was my baby, and I still miss him terribly.
Our Lhasa Apso past right before Christmas. He was almost 17 years old. We had him since he was 3. I miss coming in the house and him not greeting me at the door.
We had a German Shepherd lived 16 yrs. He sat down on his last day and said " I'm done" and slept forever. Still miss Zack to this day. 20 yrs. ago.
The oldest dog in history is an Australian Cattle Dog, it lived to be 24-28 years old?if I remember correctly. They live a long time. The oldest living dog is a Chihuahua in it's 20's if I remember. I didn't see them on the list either....I could have missed them.
I saw a video in my feed about a 30 y.o. Lab. I'm not certain how "expected" these ages are. As a kennel manager I had to basically memorize lifespans on dog breeds. Not only are a few missing on this video, they're off by many yrs. in both directions.
I rescued an adult Cattle dog/blue heeler from the shelter. We were together for 20 years. Best damn dog...
The oldest dog reported presently on Guinness is 30 plus 266 days still lives in Portugal! Looks like is not even bothered by arthritis!
@@InsomniacsManiacs I just saw that story....it looks great if that's it's true age. That story of that dog is amazing. My dog is 16 years old. It's hard to imagine her living 5 more years let alone 14 more.
@@shawnwhalen8314 my neighbor’s Pitt bull just turned 17 a couple month ago, I can see he is getting slower and a bit skinnier but he is still going, she had him before her kids, they grew with him, it’s going to be devastating for them when he passes, it will be like losing a sibling!
This is why I generally go with chihuahuas. 18 years. Just got a border collie because they’re not over bred. I see now what I’ve been missing but DAMN I miss every dog I’ve had
Got an emotional/needy German Pionter 14y/o now still runs around like a puppy when excited. Just had to put down my 17 y/o ginger cat Olley,...he was smart, fierce and super loyal. He followed me everywhere at home inside and out. I miss that little ginger ninja.
Street dogs/stray dogs that grew up in the streets are the best. They develop a very strong immune system. I adopted two when they showed up uninvited to my house, when I was living in México. One is 15 years old and the other one about 14. They look a little like Labradors, but they’re both mutts. They have never gotten sick. They’re still very strong and kicking. They’re very grateful, and so am I. I like to say that they adopted me.
❤️❤️
Our female Siberian Husky will be 14 in June after some medical issues and surgery last year she is going strong, we walk her twice a day for at least 3 miles and she is one a Hill’s Science Diet plan and we have cut out almost all bad treats and human food scraps/licks. She has lost about 10 pounds which really has perked her up.
I remember a neighbor of mines said he was going to stop feeding his dog human food because he’s a vegan and the cooking of meat everyday for his dogs was disgusting him a lot , my dogs trainer told me to cook for my dog and I said no I buy him very recommended dog food and he has a bunch of non sugary dog treats he enjoys all his stuff and doesn’t even bat an eye to human food it’s off limits.
My best buddy smokie a chihuahua lived for 17 years just passed away. I miss him soooooo much never thought it would hurt so bad when he passed he was my world a big chunk of my heart is now missing. 🐾♥️🥀
I’ve owned nine St. Bernards. Got my first one when I was 18. I’m now 66. Twice I had two at one time and once I lost a rescue after I had him only four months. Numbers six,seven and eight all lived 8 - 9 years. Current wonderful girl is four and a half. It is a tragedy they have such short lives. But, I wouldn’t trade the time I had with any of them for anything.
I had mini Yorkie that live 16 years. My brother law boss bought his girlfriend a Yorkie for her Birthday. He didn't know that she was allergic to dogs. So my brother law took the dog off his hands and gave it to his daughter who was not even 1 year old yet. Unfortunately the 8 weeks old Yorkie didn't like kids. It took a liking to me and i took liking to it. He slept with me, he follow me. He love to play fletch, tug of war. Every night before we go to bed i alway got 4 or 5 licks before he go lay on his side of bed. The day i had to put him down was hardest day of my life😢 He was laying on the table prep for him to go to sleep. I put my head to his, he gave me a bunch of licks to say good buy. It was the hardest i ever cry. I had him cremated and he in family room with his photos. ❤❤❤❤
I just got "gifted" a pitbull boxer mix. My former dog was a 15 pound lapdog that was so mellow most people thought he was an ornament toy. The bull boxer is the complete opposite of that. Nevertheless he's still a dog that's loving and grew on us like a fungus. LoL.
They have it listed here that the Boxer's life expectancy is only 8/10 years but my own Boxer dog lived to be 13 1/4 .
Well, that was WAY off. Both my Jack Russell's lived to 17. One of them shouldn't have made it past a year due to his heart condition. Then when he was 10, he also developed diabetes, which with all of his other medical conditions, meant that he would be lucky if he made it to 12. So he really defied the odds.
We only got 5ys with our boy Sammy, freakin cancer required me to make the tough decision to let him go. For the last few weeks we were in and out of the vet office every few days.....its been almost 9 yrs and just now starting to think about finding a new buddy. I think what keeps me from actually doing it is the thought of having to go through the loss again, the suck factor of it is off the charts.
Some smaller bread dogs live sometimes longer and that's the only heart break when that happens
We had a smooth Collie that lived to be 13 and a Shetland Sheepdog that lived to be almost 18.
@David Easton North Carolina
@David Easton yes.
You forgot Bassett Hounds. Please add.
All of that will give them a healthy and a longer life.
Nice to see I lost my Jasper 10 years ago he was a retired Greyhound I had him from 2 years old till he was 18 years old 4 months 6 days .right up to the day he was loved broke my heart but 3 days after I went and gave a home to my new boy a Greyhound he was 3 years old he just had his 13 th birthday:)
Los chihuahuas pueden vivir hasta más de 20 años !!!🥰🇲🇽
