I'm dogsitting one of my regulars for whom I look after every few months for a week or two, a collie cross mongrel called Holly. I'll be totally honest... I keep thinking that when I sit her, it'll be the last time. She's pushing 17, yet she still loves her walks, still loves playing ball and she still loves running around being a dog.

I'll post some piccies of her later tonight, but just thought I'd see if anyone else has a doggy thats getting on a bit, but still loving life!

My mum lost her old collie X earlier in the year Chippy was pushing 17 years and still loved to go for walks. She has a 10 year old JRT who used to look after her he would fetch her back when they called her as she was almost completely deaf

Looks in excellent condition for a 17 year old. Didnt know dogs could live that long.

Oh she's a sweety. My brothers dog died at 20 so she could easily have a few good, happy years left. Here's hoping...Jill
