 German snapper Christian Vieler, 53, has taken over 10,000 pics of the dogs

These paw-dorable shots show a group of senior dogs taking a happy outlook on older life as they dive to catch treats.

The pups are seen plunging into the air with their jaws wide for the camera, ready to snap up a yummy treat.

This incredible photographer has snapped more than 200 dogs over the years.

More than 10,000 photos have made their way into this collection.

Christian Vieler, 53, from Selm, Germany, took the pictures.

The concentration as this pooch gobbles his snack is adorable

These dogs may be older, but they are still on the ball when it comes to keeping their eye on the ball when it comes to catching their treats

He said: 'It's an ongoing project, I take pics of every senior I can get.

'I started photographing senior citizens when I realised how my own dog was slowly ageing by my side. 

'It will stay with me for the rest of my life - beautiful and sad at the same time.

'It becomes more difficult when the dogs become 'tired' and can no longer concentrate on me. 

'Then I sometimes only have a handful of options that have to work on the first attempt.'
