Odysseus is sad when he sees Argos, his old hound, because he remembers the loyalty and companionship they shared when he left for the Trojan War. Seeing Argos weak and neglected serves as a poignant reminder of the passage of time and the toll that his long journey has taken on both of them.
Sadly, Argos dies. Argos was in dire health, due to neglect, by the time Odysseus came home, but Odysseus could not reveal his true identity at that time, so he could not tend to Argos or try to save him. Still, Argos recognized him and had just enough strength to greet him and wag his tail, causing Odysseus to shed a tear at what had become of his loyal pet since he had been gone.

When Odysseus returns home after his long journey, he encounters his old dog, Argos, who is now neglected and in poor health. Despite being unable to rise due to his age, Argos recognizes Odysseus immediately and dies contentedly after seeing him. This poignant moment underscores the themes of loyalty and the passage of time, highlighting the neglect that has befallen Ithaca in Odysseus's absence. It serves as a stark contrast to the hero's heroic past and the loyalty of those who waited for him.
When Argos recognizes Odysseus' voice, he wags his tail in joy and tries to get up to greet him. This moment is significant because it symbolizes loyalty and the long wait for Odysseus to return home. Shortly after this reunion, Argos passes away peacefully.
Odysseus had bred and trained Argos himself, so Argos knew his master really well.
