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
Say you have a 4-year-old Labrador named Comet — with the new equation, Comet's real "dog age" would be slightly older than 53. The reason for the difference is actually pretty simple.
The other common system defines "dog years" to be the actual calendar years (365 days each) of a dog's life, and "human years" to be the equivalent age of a human being. [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.
The findings, published recently in the journal Cell Systems, calculate that a 5-year-old dog would be pushing 60 in human years. How old is your dog? New equation shows how to calculate its age

Genetic distance is useful for reconstructing the history of populations, such as the multiple human expansions out of Africa. [3] It is also used for understanding the origin of biodiversity . For example, the genetic distances between different breeds of domesticated animals are often investigated in order to determine which breeds should be ...
A new study has found that one "dog year" is not necessarily equivalent to seven "human years," as has been commonly thought. Forget 'dog years': Scientists say we've been calculating our pups ...
A common misconception in cat aging (and dog aging) is that a cat ages the equivalent of what a human would age in seven years each year. This is inaccurate due to the inconsistencies in aging as well as there being far more accurate equations to predict a cat's age in "cat years".
