Dog age vs Human age
Posted on 2/23/25 at 2:22 pm

Always heard and thought it was 7:1 ratio.
Just sitting here trying to figure out human years for our 14 year old beagle.
Came across this info that's new to me. Thoughts?

General guidelines for calculating dog age in human years
The first year of a dog's life is equal to about 15 human years.
The second year of a dog's life is equal to about nine human years.
After that, each human year is equal to about four or five dog years.

I'm suspect. My 2 year old lab is nowhere near the maturity of a 29 year old human.

I was told there would be no math in OT Lounge.

The 7:1 ratio would make a 2 year old dog 14 - not 29

Dogs can do human math

Did you not read the OP at all?

I think it’s a weird way of wording it.
Why did it go from each year of a dogs year = so many human years to…
each human year = so many dog years.
There’s no set amount of human years for dog years in the first 2 provided examples. You can only average.
Then they hit me with each human year is 4 or 5 years.
Is the dog getting older faster or slower?

Whatever dog age is, it's way too short.

That’s concerning, I’ve got a lab just over a year old. Very smart/sweet dog and I love him to death but most of the time he’s like a 4 year old kid who can’t control his urges to do shite that he knows he’s not supposed to be doing

Multiple the dogs age by 6 to get human equivalent

Not to mention the post he responded to can't add 15 + 9. Thread is a mess.

Eli is 85 lbs so at 6 1/2 he’s in his late 40s. That makes me sad.
