Because dog years has a definition and you aren’t using correctly


Right back at ya.


Yeah, "dog years" has a definition, and it means an animal's age expressed as an equivalent age of a dog. When applied to a human, it's about 7 to 1 (7 year old human is 1 dog year old). When applied to a dog, it's 1 to 1 (1 year old dog is 1 dog year old).

Likewise, "human years" has a definition, and it means an animal's age expressed as an equivalent age of a human. When applied to a dog, it's about 1 to 7 (1 year old dog is 7 human years old). When applied to a human, it's 1 to 1 (1 year old human is 1 human year old).



This is really simple shite if you just think about what you're saying.

A period of time in the life of dogs, defined such that the average life expectancy of a dog in "dog years" is numerically equivalent to the average life expectancy of a human. A 4- and a 5-year-old dog are about as mature as a human of 28 to 30 years and 33 to 35 years, respectively.

By the first set of definitions, a 6-year-old dog would be described as having an age of 6 human years or 40–50 dog years.
