❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Why does dog size matter for age calculation?

Larger dogs age faster than smaller dogs after reaching maturity. A Great Dane is considered senior at 6-7 years, while a Chihuahua might not be senior until 10-11 years.

Is the "7 dog years = 1 human year" rule accurate?

No, this is a myth. Dogs age much faster in their first two years (about 12 human years per dog year), then slow down. Our calculator uses the scientifically accurate method.

What's the average lifespan for dogs?

Small dogs: 12-16 years, Medium dogs: 10-13 years, Large dogs: 8-12 years. Mixed breeds often live longer than purebreds.
