Frequently asked questions

Is 1 dog year really 7 human years?
No — the ×7 rule is a myth. Dogs age fast early then slow down, and larger dogs age quicker. This calculator uses the AVMA size-based table and the 2020 UCSD study.
How old is a 10-year-old dog in human years?
About 56–79 human years depending on size (small to giant) on the AVMA method.
