There is a very famous movie called "My Ten Promises with My Dog". In this "promise", the dog's life is ten years. So, does a dog’s lifespan only last ten years? How many human years does one year of dog age equal? How old is a dog? If you want to know the answer, read on!

Generally speaking, the average lifespan of a dog is about 15 years. The lifespan of vigorous hunting dogs or competition dogs is relatively short. Generally, dogs raised at home have a longer lifespan and can live to about 20 years old. One year of age for a dog is equivalent to full growth, which is equivalent to about 18 years of age for humans. After that, every year a dog grows up is equivalent to 5 years older than a human. Generally speaking, a pet dog is about 15 years old, which is about 88 years old in humans.

In general, small dogs have a longer life span than large dogs. Small dogs have a faster metabolism, so their life span is also longer. Large dogs have slower metabolisms and shorter lifespans. It is worth noting that people's physical strength begins to weaken as soon as they reach the age of 40, and they suddenly forget quickly after they reach the age of 70, but this is rarely the case with dogs. Six months before the dog's death, the dog still retains the physical strength and strength of its prime.

Are you surprised? If you want your dog to stay with you for a longer time, you can choose a small dog. If you like large dogs very much, it is recommended to go to an offline pet store to choose a healthy one!
