It really depends on the dog and the care it receives it's whole life. The average span for a larger breed is roughly 10 years give or take a few for specific breeds. However just b/c that's the norm, doesn't by any means definitely mean you dog will drop dead at 10 years old. Well taken care of dogs can live upwards of 20 years (mostly smaller breeds that make it that far, larger dogs 15 is getting pretty old). I've seen 19 year and older dogs and had a large breed dog (Samoyed) myself live to 16 years, its not uncommon for dogs to live happy long lives when well cared for.

check out this site. They tell a TON of info on EVERY breed you can imagine. When you have a mix breed, you have to look up both breeds and take into consideration that you will get any of the characteristics and such from either breed with your dog.
It shows on there that a boxer lives to be approx. 11-14
and PitBull Terriers live to be approx 12.
So your mix dog could live to be anywhere from 11-14 years old. :)

Average life span is 13 years for a large to medium dog, the larger they get the less years they live. Usually Great Danes live to about 9 years and small dogs could live till about 20 or so. But if they dog is happy and healthy it could live anywhere from 13 to 18 years.

Depends on how good of an owner you are. make sure they are healthy and get their vacinations annually. As long as you take good care of your dog, any breed can live a good and long life. Smaller breeds tend to live longer than larger breeds.
We have cats come in here at the clinic that are 22-24 years old if healthy, not so healthy ones can live to 15-19.
We have dogs in at the clinic who are 22 years old!! Who are extra healthy. Not so healthy10-15 years.

basically it depends on the health but an average would be a bout 10-14 years old for either breed so about that long.
I had a cockapoo that lived to be 23 years old but they have an average life span of 12-15 years so it's very hard to say.

Well, usually cats and dogs live 13-15 years. But there are some animals who live longer than that. I mean, I had a cat who lived 21 years old!

Depends on the breed and the care they have had.
Big dogs don't live as long as little dogs, but, again, depends on their health.
Big dogs normally live anywhere from 10 to 13, although I had two shepherds get to be almost 18.
Small dogs live to about 15, with some living as long as 20.

The larger the breed, the shorter the life span. Your dogs average would be10-12 years.Keep in mind, it depends on so much! Good luck...
