Why your dog isn't the age you think

Exactly, there is no definitive way to quantify aging. Let’s just stick with the 7 year rule. It makes sense because humans average lifespan is about 70 years and dog average lifespan is normally around 10 years. 10x7 is 70. It makes sense if you use that logic. Of course there are exceptions to this but it is a good general rule of thumb just to help us humans to understand what stage of life our sweet doggies are at so we can better help them and understand them.
