As you Brits and Scotsmen say . . . "BRILLIANT!" I needed to see this today. My wife passed away at 6:07 in the morning, five years ago today. Thanks for lightening the load for four minutes - makes me want to get a dog ...or two. ; - ) Addendum: I am blown away by all the kind words of support from ALL over - wow, thanks so much! Her affliction was diagnosed as primary progressive aphasia, a particularly cruel disease that affects & attacks the frontal lobe - where executive decision making, life skills, verbalizing, etc. can be wiped out - and it was. PPA is essentially a super fast moving form of dementia which can attack ANYONE at ANY age, for which there is no cure or treatment, per se. Please don't judge me when I say. . .what I would not do to change just one more of her diapers. She's at peace and that's the best I can hope for. It's the way it is. On another more positive note . . . GO CHIEFS!! ; - )

I'm old and a widower and approaching my final transition and when I reflect on the joys of my life, my wife and I always measured it in "pet moments" as they brought us such joy. We shed more tears over pets than we did people and pet lovers understand. Take a look at what Mark Twain said about cats. It is inspiring to know such a great man had such great compassion. Best of luck to all of us!

Olive is the dog I had for so long -- I watched him as a puppy, I watched him as he grew older, I watched as his muzzle got gray and as he slowed down. Watching a dog you love grow older is a gift, because it teaches us to appreciate every day, every moment all the more. Olive must be 10 going on 11 now -- I so hope she lives for many years more, because while Mabel is the silly and loveable one, Olive is the one growing old with dignity, the way we all hope we will. Thank you, Andew, for reminding us to appreciate the rare moments, the beautiful moments.

"Two Dogs Better Than One". I learned that over 30 years ago when my friend gave me her Westie Boy to go with my Westie Girl and it gave her a new lease of life and she lived until she was 16. I, soon, acquired a family of 3 Westies and now had 2 Boys and 2 Girls and it was a wonderful decision though I lost one each year from 2011-2014. I got a 6-month-old puppy from neighbours soon after losing those 4 Angels and started looking after dogs and now, aged 10, he has a Daughter who is 5 tomorrow, and the Mum and another daughter live in my road and I see them most days. THREE MAIN Advantages. They have each other at home, in the park, and when you are out. I, also, "inherited" a Yorkie (8)😀

You are a rich man, Mr. Cotter, measured by doggie love. Thank you for sharing these 2 wonderful girls with us!

So lovely. When my aging parents moved in with me in 1994, we got two Labs, a black female and a yellow male who were littermates. I was still working and we were looking for something to keep our mom and dad busy and active. Molly and Bailey were the perfect answer. We had them for more than 11 years and they were the most wonderful companions for our family and for each other. Bailey was the last one to die but not until he saw my dad through several years of Alzheimer’s disease. On days when Dad didn’t know much else, he knew his dog and loved him to the end. Our family and Bailey gathered around Dad’s deathbed during his final hours and one of the last gestures I remember Dad making was to reach out and rub Bailey’s head. Thank you for this wonderful video. It brought back some really great memories. What would we ever do without dogs? What a wonderful gift they are.

I’m sure dogs (& pets generally) are wonderful companions for the elderly. You have to take them for 2 walks each day, care for them, and love them as they love you unconditionally. And dogs are PEOPLE MAGNETS. My current dog, a very sweet natured and cute bichon poo always draw people to him and they end up talking to me. So When I’m old and gnarly, i’ll adopt a cute little bichon poo and walk to the park everyday, where people will come up to play with my dog and talk to me!

Andrew, your dogs bring nothing but pure joy to us all. Thank you for sharing.

That was really beautiful Andrew, thank you. I had 2 Golden Retrievers. They were inseparable. One died of kidney failure when the other was just 2 years old. She had a breakdown. I didn't realise dogs could have a nervous breakdown but I witnessed it first hand. It took years of patience and hard work but she has been a happy dog for a few years now. She'll soon be 8. She is the centre of our family and we'd be lost without her.

I shouldn't want to cry !! I've had 2 dogs and truly 2 dogs are better than 1. They've both gone now, but the combined joy they had in each other was just difficult to resist. You cannot but be joyful and alive in their presence. ❤ Dogs are the best thing that happened to us. The absolute best. 💯

Oh my goodness weeping buckets. Beautiful Andrew 😊

Thank you for this--it brought tears, This is the story of our black Lab, Sawyer, who did not eat for two days after we brought home a puppy we found in a trash bag, a 12 week old sheepdog mix. Sawyer was a sweet dog but initially she growled at Dixon's attempts to play. Then, like Olive and Mabel, they became best friends. Eight years later, Sawyer died, on July 21 this year, and watching Dixon grieve with us was heartbreaking. She lay by the front door, waiting, for hours, for Sawyer to return. Twice, when she heard the sound of Sawyer's metal collar tags, she ran excitedly from the other room, then lay by the door again, quietly waiting. She became very anxious if one of us left the car, for example, to run into the market. If we both left her alone in the house, when we returned, she was frantic, as if we'd been away for weeks rather than a couple of hours. Only now, 7 months later, is she settling down.

They need closure. They need to know what happened. They can’t accept their friend going out the door and not coming back. It is why when Ramses died I stopped at my parents house on the way to the vet so Candy could sniff him and know that he was gone. And why I brought Diana to my parent’s house when it was Candy’s time so she could sniff her after the vet had left. Dogs are accepting of death. It’s the not knowing they can’t handle.

What an unexpected sweet video hearing a Scotsman commenting about his dogs’ life. And what a nice way to end my day. Loved every word! Kiss your dogs; one for you and one from us.

There is something pure and ineffable about our relationships with animals, and about theirs to each other, that you captured with a crystalline simplicity and directness. Thank you so much. All my best wishes to you.

Andrew, you have a gift for giving us exactly what we need exactly when we need it. Thank you.

This was one the the most lovely videos I have seen in a very long time. It was a pleasure to watch and listen to. Excellent in every aspect.

What a beautiful tear jerker, (and not what I expected when I started watching.) Thank you for touching my heart.

Beautiful! Best short film ever. Lots of work went into this lovely video. Thank you!!! ❤️❤️🖤🤎

Oh Andrew how I cherish this beautiful story, thank you so much ❤❤❤

When I just need the world to slow down and smile, I watch these two sweeties again.

That was so wonderful! Those two dogs have the greatest lives! I wish every dog on the planet were as loved and happy. What a beautiful video!!!

What sweet memories. Brought tears to my eyes. Life with our fur buddies is never long enough but the love is. Thank you Mr Cotter for sharing.
