it depends on how he is raised, alot of things account for how long they live. what foods, illnesses, injuries, health, all of this and more can contribute to life expectancy. no one can tell you the actual date because that would be guessing... depending on how you care for him, is all i can say

Avg dog life is about 14 years old, depends on their health, if you provide your dog premimum dog food, exercise him at least an hour a day, socialize it and keep it healthy and happy. Sometimes it could live like 16 years old.

It will all depend on how well you take care of him.
Dogs have been known to live 10yrs and longer but that is really really old for a dog. If you take care of him he should be there when you get married, just don't wait until you are thirty

Of course it depends on the food you're feeding him, the care you give him, and his environment...Small dogs are prone to tooth problems and sometimes respiratory and heart problems..My little Yorkie lived until 15.

As a general rule, small breed dogs such as yours can live up to 15 yrs.

if he stays a healthy accident-free dog... about 10-14 years is the average lifespan.

if you keep his teeth clean and feed him lowfat dog food, always keep his water clean and take good care of him, he could make it.;)
Wishing you happy times with your pup.
ps. my Beagles lived to age 15 and 16
