Average life of Dog is 10 to 12 years, but if you care and love your Dog then the life of dog increases 14 yr to 16 years. Try to adopt street Dogs and animals.they are really innocent.

The average life span of the North American or European dog is 12.8 years. This is a large increase in life span over the past 100 years and is mostly attributable to better food and better medical care. Within this 12.8 year average for all dogs is a large range of life spans where certain breeds live longer and certain breeds live less long. In general, larger dogs live shorter lives than smaller dogs. This is due to the fact that the bodies of larger dogs must work harder (are more stressed) than the bodies of smaller dogs. That said, the life expectancy of any one dog in particular is ALSO determined by the stresses in its life (both physical and psychological), what it eats and how well it is taken care of.

Depends on the breed. Papillons live between 14 -16 but cockers only live between 12-13 the bigger the dog the shorter the life

They say smaller dogs live longer about 12 to 15 years. Larger breed dogs live about 10 to 12 years, and very large breeds sometimes less.

English Bulldogs may live until they are 8 years old and chihuahuas can live 15+ years. I would say 10 to 12 years is average.

Great danes can live as little as 8-10 years. Chihuahuas can live to be 16 or older. Larger breeds have shorter lifespans.
