[2] By this terminology, the age of a 6-year-old dog is described as 6 dog years or 40–50 human years, a reversal from the previous definition.
Each additional year of the dog’s life is then multiplied by between 4.3 and 13.4 years, depending on the breed, to find their human age. American Kennel Club The stages of a dog’s life

Proestrus and estrus can last anywhere from 5 days to 21 days. [5] 3. Diestrus is the period following mating. Diestrus lasts approximately 56 to 60 days in a pregnant ...
16 x ln( the natural logarithm of your dog’s age in "human years") + 31. Confused? Here's an example. Say you have a 4-year-old Labrador named Comet — with the new equation, Comet's real "dog ...
The well-known 1:7 ratio for dog and human years isn't a reliable way to determine your dog's age, according to researchers, since canines and humans age differently
A mutation in the age−1 gene of the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans increased mean life span 65% and maximum life span 110%. [82] However, the degree of lifespan extension in relative terms by both the age-1 and daf-2 mutations is strongly dependent on ambient temperature, with ≈10% extension at 16 °C and 65% extension at 27 °C.
