How do you tell how old a dog is in human years?

Question

I know multiplying the age by seven isn't right. Anyone know how?

My lab is 7 years and my new puppy is 4 months. This is in dog years.
I'm not retarted I know how old my dog is.

How do you tell in HUMAN years.

Answer 1

I think you meant how do you tell how old your dog is in dog years. In human years you would figure it out the same as you do your own birthday.

Check out this online calculator, don't think it would really be accurate for the giant breeds though. http://www.onlineconversion.com/dogyears.htm

This one would be a little more accurate:

Your 4 mo old pup would be 3.5 in dog years (since he is .3333 yrs in human years)

and your 7 yr old lab would be 47 - 50 in dog yrs. depending on whether it's around 50 lbs or over 50 lbs

Answer 2

It is a common belief that 1 human year is equal to 7 dog years. That is not very accurate, since dogs reach adulthood within the first couple of years. The formula used below is from a canine expert and is a bit more accurate. (as accurate as one can judge these things)

10.5 dog years per human year for the first 2 years, then 4 dog years per human year for each year after.

if you go to the sight below they have a calculator that will do it for you.

Answer 3

if u dont know how old ur dog is then u really arent that informed about ur own dog. my dog is 2 years and six months old because he was born in april of 2005 it is just like a person's birthday

EDIT: those ages r HUMAN years. 7 years means 7 human years. i think u mean dog years. to calculate dog years u need to first figure out what breed ur dog is. contrary to popular belief u dont mulitply their age by seven. a bigger dog will be older in dog years than a smaller dog even if they r the same age

Answer 4

same as us in human years. dog age is 7 years per human year.. so a 1 year old dog in human years is 7 in dog years

Answer 5

2 years is 25 human years for dog. i believe it goes to every 4 after that.

Answer 6

My dog is three years old.

So 7 X 3 = 21.
So she is 21 years old.

For Puppies, just go by their birth date and how many weeks they are until they reach 1 year old, which makes them 7 years old.

Answer 7

your 7 year old dog= 54
your 4 month old puppy= 4 years old

UM so you know how old it is in dog years but u dont know how old he is in human years
if ur dog is 4 month old that makes him 1/2 a month old in human years

i think ur mixed up

Answer 8

Funny but, this has never interested me. I always go by the breed and what their life expectancy is. I dont measure my dogs by human standards, how could you? I am not sure how or why anyone would want to.

Answer 9

how ever old she is add 5 years to the dog years and that will be your answer

Answer 10

y=4.5x+5

y equals human years
d is dog years
