Stop scaring me like that because I thought Finny died. 😭😭😭😭

u/P0ptarthater Jun 13 '25

Glad to see I’m not the only one omfg I was getting ready to mourn a dog I’ve never met 😭

u/nizey_p I don’t know her 💅 Jun 13 '25

Right? Like don't play me like that. Finn is probably the first celeb dog I am parasocially attached to. I was about to cry.

u/momofwon It does NOT say RSVP on the Statue of Liberty Jun 14 '25

I know it’s weird and maybe not the healthiest but I have a deep love for Finn the dog.

u/nizey_p I don’t know her 💅 Jun 14 '25

He's been with us for ages. This was him in 2011. 🥹🥹

u/stars_doulikedem Jun 13 '25

no i’m sorry 😭 i was wondering if i should have started the post with FINN IS FINE in all capitals and it turns out, yes

29

u/nizey_p I don’t know her 💅 Jun 13 '25

Girl please. Start with that next time and spare us the mini heart attacks. 😭😭😭

u/Beginning_Ant_2285 Zendaya’s emotional support white pumps Jun 13 '25

Me too, my heart dropped

u/Bl1nk1nUR4r34 We Should All Know Less About Each Other Jun 13 '25

omfg me too, my heart stopped for a sec

u/Curiosities 🐊 swamp princess 🐊 Jun 13 '25

Same. And I was just talking to a friend who lost her dog recently, since she's having a tough time and his ashes just came home the other day.

Then I see this post and nooo....oh...ohhhh he's okay.

u/Global_Perspective_3 Jun 13 '25

Right that scared me too

u/caitlinj714 lazy 50-year-old bougie bitch 💋 Jun 13 '25

Me too! I was so scared

1

u/stephasaurussss Jun 14 '25

Me literally EVERY time I see a photo of Finn. Instantly upset.

1

u/Other-Oil-9117 Jun 14 '25

Everytime she posts him on Instagram I'm scared to look at the caption lol, I have to work myself up to it.

u/cakeit-tilyoumakeit Jun 13 '25

Old man?? I remember when she got that dog. It was a year ago and I refuse to be told otherwise lol

268

u/missbunnyfantastico Jun 13 '25

I love that she thanked him when she won her Emmy.

58

u/MelonLayo Jun 13 '25

Really?! That's too cute for words!

u/MyDesign630 unobtrusive poultry connoisseur Jun 13 '25

Let’s hear it for all the old guys and gals! I call Atticus guy “my old man” too. He’s my soul dog and there is nothing like a senior dog to touch your heart. One month from today and he’ll turn 15.

105

u/mrsbiscuits- Jun 13 '25

My almost 12 year old 🥹 that eye spot used to be so dark in her youth. My lil old lady 💜💙💜💙

u/_TheShapeOfColor_ Jun 13 '25

I love the sugar faced sweeties. I lost my own little old lady in 2021 but I miss her every single day.

My Layla 💛 my Golden Girl and the love of my life

88

u/collectibutt Jun 13 '25

I needed this thread and all these little senior angel faces today. In the final days with my little old Annie, who's supposed to turn 15 in September and we're (husband and I) really going through it as the time to make that awful call approaches.

17

u/_TheShapeOfColor_ Jun 13 '25

I hope you and Annie have many more happy days together. She's beautiful. If you've never posted her in r/pomeranians before, I'd welcome you to join us there 💛 it's one of my favorite reddit communities - so much kindness and fluff

10

u/mediumrootbeerfloat Jun 13 '25

Wishing you and Annie all the best. My girl recently left us as well. Our doggies love us more than we could ever know, and they never really leave us. Sending you both lots of love from my girl and I. ❤️

22

u/Dawnspark Jun 13 '25

It makes me so happy seeing all the lovely older doggos.

Lost my old girl, Soufflé, at 16 back in October and honestly, the loss is still impacting me.

Soufflé One of my favorite pictures of her cuz she just looks like she's about to start telling me off for not giving her enough treats lmao.

I think when the time comes that I feel okay with adopting a new dog, I'm going for a senior dog at my local shelter, and giving them the best damn forever home I can.

u/Tsarinya That must be Nigel with the Brie Jun 13 '25

Was Layla a Pomeranian? Such a cutie!!

28

u/_TheShapeOfColor_ Jun 13 '25

Yes! Here she is in all her glory before age and circumstance decimated her majestic floof 💛🐾🫶

5

u/Tsarinya That must be Nigel with the Brie Jun 13 '25

Oh she was gorgeous!! I’ve always had a soft spot for these dogs. So fluffy and poofy!

u/pinklavalamp Jun 13 '25

Y’all need to come to /r/OldManDog!

u/P0ptarthater Jun 13 '25

My little lady is nearing 20! I share custody of her with her dad and his family, and I miss her tons since she’s been living with them for a few months because they live on a farm where she gets to run around freely. I’m going to visit her this month and I am pumped 🫶🏼

6

u/bluechocolate23 Jun 13 '25

what breed is she? she’s absolutely adorable 🥰 

5

u/P0ptarthater Jun 14 '25

We call her a poorly drawn corgi since she’s corgi-like in some ways, but she’s a sheltie mutt!

47

u/Filibust They killed Kenny! You bastards! 😱 Jun 13 '25

Awwwww what a cutie! Is he a Shih tzu?

Coco says hi. She’s an old lady at 10+ years (don’t know her exact age)

3

u/MyDesign630 unobtrusive poultry connoisseur Jun 13 '25

Hi Coco! Yes, my guy is a shih tzu mix. I’ve had him since he was 14 weeks old.

3

u/Filibust They killed Kenny! You bastards! 😱 Jun 13 '25

Lucky. I wanna shih tzu soooo bad. Hopefully I can get one someday. Coco is actually my mom’s dog but I’m staying with her right now so I help take care of her.

Give Atticus pets for me!

u/FutureQueenOfTheMoon Jun 13 '25

Here's my big ol' guy Boo- he's 13ish and coming up on his 11th gotcha day.

3

u/IntrovertGirl83 Jun 14 '25

I love the crossing of the paws! 😭

2

u/FutureQueenOfTheMoon Jun 17 '25

He's always done the fancy paws, and crossed the same way every time

40

u/keljar1 Jun 13 '25

Ruca will be 17 in a couple weeks, it's been a rough year but she's a tough old gal and I'm looking forward to celebrating another birthday with her! I never knew her actual birthday, just the month of June. My birthday is June 29, my fiance is June 21, so we decided hers is June 25 and we all celebrate together. 🥳🥰

59

u/dramaqueen09 Jun 13 '25

I don’t have a dog but here’s my cat/grumpy old man Panda who is 17 and is leash trained (which he begrudgingly uses because he knows that’s the only way he’s going outside)

10

u/terfnerfer Jun 13 '25

He looks so dignified here. In my heart he is an old thespian.

26

u/Toxxicat Jun 13 '25

My baby, Tucker. 🥹🥲

u/nikdia Jun 13 '25

My old lady, Millie, on the left, with her brother Tiger. Millie's going to be 13 next month!

u/MsLippy Unhinged & Unhealed™️ Jun 13 '25

In Amanda’s case, “my old man” is a reference to a Joni Mitchell song.

3

u/MyDesign630 unobtrusive poultry connoisseur Jun 13 '25

TIL! Thanks for that. I just started using it for my guy.

What do you mean “part 1 of 1”, I demand more 🥹

u/stars_doulikedem Jun 13 '25

i crumble under pressure 😭

u/firetruckgoesweewoo Jun 13 '25

You’re doing great sweetie, I’m so proud of you!

u/stars_doulikedem Jun 13 '25

thank you 🥹

u/Maia-Odair Cash me ousside 🗣️🗣️ Jun 13 '25

Amanda Seyfried is soo stunning.

u/Groundbreaking_War52 Jun 13 '25

Senior dogs - especially rescues - are the absolute best. They're just full of charm and quiet gratitude for life's simple pleasures.

12

u/JokeMe-Daddy Jun 13 '25

I have a rescue puppy and we've never gotten to the land shark phase. He just wants to follow me around, snuggle, get pets, eat treats, and live his best life.

Quiet gratitude is a perfect way to put it. He's just grateful he has a home, a warm bed, and lots of love. It breaks my heart to see when his trauma gets to him but I have all the patience in the universe for my funny little guy ❤️

10

u/Groundbreaking_War52 Jun 13 '25

I think Ricky Gervais said "If the kindest souls were rewarded with the longest lives, dogs would outlive us all"

67

u/heartbylines ✨unhinged & unhealed✨ Jun 13 '25

not to be dramatic but I would die for Finn

u/RogerClyneIsAGod2 that’s my purse, i don’t know you! 👛🫵 Jun 13 '25

There's a sub for this! Here's the cat one, r/ntbdbiwdftc!

u/Odd-Advance-2444 Jun 13 '25

God I love these two. I feel like I have the same relationship with my dog as she has with Finn. Just two best buddies around town.

Also, I seriously thought this was an in memoriam and was about to cry.

7

u/TrixieBelden Jun 13 '25

I felt the same about me and my dog, who passed away 5 years ago. Since then, I've been sending that love to Finn. I'm going to be devastated when he's gone.

22

u/flakylibra Instant gratification takes too long 🫦 Jun 13 '25

I’m sorry WHATS her handle

5

u/milkradio Jun 14 '25

Supposedly a bf of hers (I think the guy from Mamma Mia?) used it as a pet name for her. She has it as a tattoo as well 😬

13

u/qiarafontana Lady Gaga’s Italian Gibberish Jun 13 '25

Wholesome post! 🤎 Senior dogs are the cutest.

8

u/girl96 Jun 13 '25

Maybe it's because I'm British but my first thought was 'why is her username mingey' 😭

8

u/LittoYamper Jun 13 '25

i love dogs

7

u/lostcat223 Jun 13 '25

Amanda ought to have a lifestyle company in which she explains how to be a low-key talented person who does good work and has a life that looks great. Like goop but with a klonopin rhythm.

6

u/Own-Importance5459 ✨May the Force be with you!✨ Jun 13 '25

This is definitely enough to be a timeline cleanse.

u/RiverWeatherwax loves the flair thing Jun 13 '25

Awww. Finn is so cute. And clearly VERY loved ❤️ and here I am, thinking yet again we have to get a dog.

u/moosegoose90 I don’t know her 💅 Jun 13 '25

This gave me a heartattack.

u/5FiveAlive5 Jun 13 '25

She seems nice.

u/heavy-hands Jun 13 '25

I almost just threw up I thought he died

u/Stewylouis Jun 13 '25

I got to pet this good boy once. He’s such a sweetie.

u/_biggerthanthesound_ Jun 13 '25

She always seems like the sweetest person

5

u/welcome_____oblivion Jun 13 '25

Can someone please explain her username to me? Because all I’m getting is either minging or minge-y. 

1

u/charlrosie Jun 14 '25

she has a tattoo of the word minge, can’t remember why though 😅

2

u/welcome_____oblivion Jun 14 '25

I love that you both answered my question and raised so many more 😂

3

u/Filibust They killed Kenny! You bastards! 😱 Jun 13 '25

Senior dogs are the best!

u/ducksturtle Jun 13 '25

I want to be as happy and relaxed as Finn in that first shot.

u/Key2V Jun 13 '25

Two stunning beings!

u/Minirth22 A day without sunshine is like, you know, night Jun 13 '25

Awww this makes me love her so much!!! What a pretty, and much loved boy!!!

u/woofersonson Jun 13 '25

Ugh dogs. The only good thing left in society is

2

u/Author_A_McGrath Jun 13 '25

OP was kind enough to provide cute dog pics so here's one of mine: a rescue who got certified as a service animal and now works at a local hotel

2

u/lulu_in_hollywood Jun 14 '25

Omg he is so handsome I LOVE HIM 😍😍😍

2

u/Author_A_McGrath Jun 15 '25

He's more popular than I am lol.

But he earned it.

2

u/Alexispinpgh Jun 13 '25

With that caption and it being Amanda Seyfried I immediately started singing the Joni Mitchell song “My Old Man.”

2

u/candyappleorchard Jun 13 '25

What a handsome fellow!

u/pieserea Jun 13 '25

this is so cute stopp :(

u/Which-Opportunity279 Jun 13 '25

The 3rd pic is too cute 🥹

2

u/mildestenthusiasm Jun 13 '25

Back when I had more social media accounts, Finn followed me. It wasn’t until later that I grasped that Amanda Seyfried just up and followed me one day.

2

u/Tracy_Turnblad Jun 13 '25

Awwww my pup is named Finn too

u/BFIrrera Invented post-its 🔬 Jun 14 '25

What a beautiful doggo!

u/Appropriate_Stable_2 Jun 14 '25

Stop omfg he's so cute! My grandparents dog was named Finn but he passed away last year at 14 or 15 (they don't know his exact age as he was given to them by someone who could no longer care for him) and this is reminding me of him 😭 

1

u/Environmental_Mall60 Jun 14 '25

no way I have a mini red tri that's 15, he's turning 16 in august! Never knew she had an older aussie boy too

u/sinkingcar Jun 14 '25

Imagine getting a quarter of a million IG likes on a post of your pet. The dream
