* In ''Series/TheKingOfQueens'', Carrie realises the Heffernan family dog, Rocky, has to be at least twenty-seven years old as he appears in home videos with an eleven-year old Doug. Doug is now thirty-eight. Patient questioning of Doug's mother gets the confession that the Heffernan parents are now on Rocky Four. They just never told him that old dogs die and didn't want to dissillusion their son.

* Chop, Lamar's (though he mostly stays with Franklin) dog from ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'', is seen significantly older in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoOnline''. Back in his heyday (2013), he was Franklin's CanineCompanion who was quick on his feet and could sniff out trouble, attacking on Franklin's command ([[AnythingThatMoves sexual distractions notwithstanding]]). Years later, his fur has grayed and he doesn't get around to much anymore, as described by Franklin. There's even a BaitAndSwitch where [[spoiler:it seems as though Chop is finally dying (going by a rottweiler's typical lifespan, by 2021, he should be on his last or second-to-last year), but he's actually just stoned off his ass eating one of Lamar's pot brownies]].

* ''VideoGame/Mother'':
** ''VideoGame/EarthBoundBeginnings'' has Ninten's dog [[ABoyAndHisX (and very first friend)]], Mick. [[AllThereInTheManual According to "Encyclopedia MOTHER,"]] Mick was one year and five months old when Ninten was born, making him thirteen to Ninten's twelve during the events of the game. When Ninten was a toddler, Mick would let him ride on his back.
** ''VideoGame/EarthBound1994'' has King, who belongs to Ness's family. A flashback shown late in the game shows that King was a puppy when Ness was born, making him about thirteen/fourteen years old during the events of the game. No wonder he spends most of his time sleeping around the house!

* The [[OneSceneWonder doggie]] from ''Film/TheRoom'' was very old at the time of filming. This may explain why he sat so quietly on the counter that Creator/TommyWiseau didn't initially notice his presence.
