This pet owner's footage of his elderly dog living her best life has gone viral on Reddit.

Clips of Hime, an 11-year-old husky with arthritis, being cycled around Richmond, UK, were posted to the social media site and have since blown up.

The adorable footage shows Hime taking in her surroundings as she is cycled around a park.

The filmer told Newsflare: "I bought the trailer after her initial diagnosis while she was still active, but she now prefers it

"She will sometimes sit in the trailer before I can attach the wheels.

"I cycle her around the Richmond area.

"The Reddit post lead to commentators alerting me to the necessity of a mudguard for her protection from road debris."

One video of Hime received over 87,000 upvotes on Reddit with 660 awards given.

These videos were filmed in April.

Photos available on request.

Hime is an 11 year old Siberian Husky who has being diagnosed with arthritis, a common condition for her breed.

Prior to her diagnosis, she used to be harnessed to my bicycle with a special attachment that allowed her to pull the bicycle like a sled dog would. She greatly enjoyed it and would pull me for miles. This bicycle trailer is now attached to the same bike that she used to pull.

She loves to go to places she previously used to mush to - Bushy Park, Richmond Park, Marble Hill and Osterley. She now enjoys sleeping there in the sunshine.

Commentators on the Reddit post alerted me to the need for a mudguard to keep her safe from road debris - this is something I would not have realised otherwise had I not posted the video and have it go viral. Proceeds from the licensing of the footage paid for mudguards and are now installed on the bike. This will keep her from risk of injury.

Here is the link to the Reddit post, which hit the frontpage with millions of views, and is amongst the highest user-awarded posts for the month - 'She spent her life pulling me along. So now it's my turn to pull her!'
