The Japanese script on the box gives the dog’s age as sixteen.
The owner’s affection speaks for itself.
Mmf.
Cool folk have these on the inside.

A sobering and effective split-screen PSA from the Heart And Stroke Foundation of Canada.
If you’d prefer the happy version, just cover the right hand side of the video with your liver-spotted claw. Or the edge of a fag box, or a slab of ‘deli-style’ ham.

Photographer Jeroen Wolf at Filmersblog sez:
In October 2011 I started documenting people in the city of Amsterdam, approaching them in the street and asking them to say their age in front of the camera. My aim was to ‘collect’ a group of 100 people, from age 0 to 100. At first my collection grew fast but slowed down when it got down to the very young and very old. The young because of sensivity around filming or photographing children and the very old because they don’t get out of the house much. I found my very old ‘models’ in care homes and it was a privilege to document these -often vulnerable- people for this project. I had particular problems finding a 99 year-old. (Apparently 100 year-olds enjoy notoriety, but a 99 year-old is a rare species…) And when I finally did find one, she refused to state her age. She simply denied being 99 years old! But finally, some 4 months after I recorded my first ‘age’, I was able to capture the ‘missing link’ and conclude this project.
See? Now you can count to 100 in Dutch.
Old Marilyn Monroe (2008) by Andrzej Dragan.
Every five years, friends John Wardlaw, John Dickson, Mark Rumer, Dallas Burney and John Molony meet up at Copco Lake in California to recreate a group photo first taken in 1982, complete with props, poses and inscrutable teen expressions.
“We plan on doing this for the rest of our lives, no matter what,” said Dickson. “Up until there’s one guy just sitting in the same pose! Even then, maybe someone will take a picture of an empty bench for us.”
