Pooches growing old gracefully.
On his Facebook page, Thorne, who is based in Toronto, Canada, said he's shooting the pictures for a potential book and gallery show.
The project has generated considerable interest, with numerous owners getting in touch with him every day asking for their pet to be included.
Below are 16 of the dogs who have been photographed for the series so far, along with descriptions of some of them from Thorne's Facebook page.
Elmo
"He's a 14-year-old pitbull and the first old doggie I shot for the Old Faithful photo project," Thorne said of Elmo. "He's straight up smiling for his portrait."

Bodley
A 12-year-old boxer and Staffordshire terrier mix.
His owner, Tiffany, said that while Bodley's arthritis limits his flexibility, it hasn't limited his enthusiasm for going for walks and exploring leaves.
"His eyes might be weakening, but there is nothing wrong with his nose which still can sniff out a delicious discarded pizza crust at 20 feet," she said.
