you’re able to probably pretend what find next — as the lawn mower column inch closer to Zeus ’s Frisbee , Kucer ’s boyfriend is forced to reroute , bend down , pick up the disc , and give it a littleside pass .

Unfortunately , there ’s a sorry reason behind the video of Zeus ’s clever playtime . In afollow - up videoposted a few years by and by , Kucer percentage that Zeus was diagnosed with bone cancer on May 25 and the veterinarian estimate he only has six months to live . That ’s why they do n’t chuck the frisbee very far — his mobility has become modified and they want to foreclose injuries .

" I really just wanted to share Zeus just because I have it away him very much and he does n’t have much time left , " she said .

Despite the dour prospect , Zeus is continuing tolive sprightliness to the fullestand his possessor is devoted to taking more videos of her pup while he ’s here . She ’s happy to apportion " the sweetest dog " with the whole world . ( So are we . )

We ’re so happy to have met Zeus . He reminds us to look for the wide-eyed joys of life , like play a courteous game of fetch .
