7 years

You can't just say 'seven' because all dog breeds have radically varying lifespans. I don't need to have been a dog to know that James, it's called intelligence.

Great Danes and Mastiffs rarely live more than 6-8 years. 8 years is ancient for a Dane, so if you said it was 7 Dane years to a human year, that would make an 8 year old Dane 56, which isn't ancient is it? Doesn't work, does it?

Chihuahua and cross breed dogs can live around 20 years, so I'd say the 'seven year' rule is true enough for them.

Larger breeds tend to have shorter life expectancies, so you have to adjust the dog/human year ratio accordingly.

There is no tried and true answer to that, but for the first few years dogs age rapidly. A 1 year old dog, is equivalent to a 7 year old child. 2 year old dog - 14 year old teen, ... but as the dog ages, those number slow down obviously. If not a 15 year old dog (which is very common for a small breed) would be 105 years old.

Although dogs shouldn't be attributed with having human characteristics, they are intelligent enough to be able to understand the concept of, and execute, certain actions that their owners require of them - if these actions are asked in a way that dogs find rewarding. So, with this rule in mind, owners have to be clever as well and find a way of training their dog that actually works quickly and efficiently. The eBook I wrote explains how to achieve this ideal - how to speak “dog” so that you’re able to communicate effectively with your four-legged friend.
As with any training, the best time to start is as soon as you get your new pet. The fundamentals for successful housetraining are:

- Crate training is very important so it should be mastered.
- A schedule is required for feeding and exercising.
- Be vigilant and patient throughout the training period.

House training is most likely every dog owner’s top concern. And it should begin as soon as possible. That's the very first day your dog comes into your home. If you've adopted a new furry friend and spend months in the home without aiding him/her achieve success when it comes to training then s/he’s going to set a precedence that you now need to change. So, concentrate on prevention as opposed to cure. House training comes down to one
rather simple skill - being a good dog time manager. And this means managing your pup's time so that you let them have as few chances as possible to make house training blunders.

It depends on the breed and weight and age of the dog. They grow more rapidly than humans in puppy years. It averages out to be about 7 years for each people year. Larger dogs that is less, and smaller more.
