how are dogs old at the age of 6?

Answer 1

42 human yrs middle age

Answer 2

If the dog is large 6 is getting up there as some of the larger breeds start to have aging problems. I lost my large 120 pound male dog at age 10. Smaller dogs tend to live longer 12 - 16 or more years.

Answer 3

I have a dog that is about 120 pounds and he just turned 11 last weekend! I have heard small and medium breeds age 7 to 1, and large and up age 10/1! Your dog has alot of life left I'd say!

Answer 4

They are starting to get old at 6.
That's like a dog's middle age.

Answer 5

because 1 of our human years is 7 dog years so if they were 6 in our human years then 6x7dog years is 42 so then they are sort of old...but 6 isnt that old 14 is old for a dog

Answer 6

The old rule of "7 years of canine life = 1 year of human life" is no longer used. The new formula is as follows: The first year of your dog's life is = to 15 years in human life. The second year is = to 10 years. After that, each year counts as three human years so your dog is actually 37.

Answer 7

Assuming that you are asking how old that the dog is in thier own years at our age of six, it could have to be 42, since dogs age 7 times faster then us. 1 human year=7 dog years

Answer 8

they would be 6 in human years and 42 in dog years. you just x's their age by 7. There you go!

Answer 9

Dogs are 42 years old. You multiply its human years by 7

Answer 10

42 years old! and hopefully many more to go! They say that you multiply the age in dog years by 7 to get the age in human years!!

Answer 11

Each year to us humans is the equivalent to 7 dogs year. So, if a dog is 6 in human years it would be 42 in dog year.
