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.
