Billy's dog
At his home, what breed of dog does Billy have in this film, anyone know?
shareI don't think it's a dog at all. I think it's alien spie or something.
shareA Jack Russell terrier when it was a puppy. The adult dog doesn't look like a Jack Russell however.
shareIts also highly improbable that a dog would live that long...didnt they show the dog as a puppy when their children were babies? That would make that dog around 18 years old. He would have been ancient, right?

The dog must be older than that. Both kids were grown up, the girl had her fella and the boy appeared to be a sergeant in the army. I'd guess they were in their 20s, tbh. But I imagine Billy treated Spot really well, which is why he lived to his 20s. :D
shareThe dog's age was shown in the movie to be extremely old by the end, where Billy is carrying it upstairs, presumably as it is close to death. Seems to have had new life breathed into it on Tralfamdore (heaven of sorts).
