How old is my dog lol

[bamamomto4]

We got Hoss about 6 years ago..how old is that in dog years? How do you figure it up? Anyone know?

We can tell he's getting older.He's not as playful and tires out easily

I was recently told that even though a lot of people say animals are 7 years to our one, that a more accurate age would be to allow 7 for their first year and 5 each year after. Therefore, most would say he is roughly 42 if you go by the old standard of 7 per year. The other way he would be 32 (7 for the first year 5 for the other years).

In the dog show world, we do it a little differently. We consider the first year to be equal to sixteen in human years. After that, it's five years per dog year. Therefore, your dog is roughly 41. This can vary by the breed(s) os the dog and how well the animal is cared for over its life.
