| Have you ever wondered how old your dog is in human years? You can find out by using the chart below to figure it out. Just find your dogs age ( how old he is now) and look to the right to see how old he would be as a human.
Age Comparison Chart for Dogs Real Age of Dog Human years 3 months 5 years 6 months 10 years 1 year 15 years 2 years 24 years 4 years 32 years 6 years 40 years 8 years 48 years 10 years 56 years 14 years 72 years 18 years 88-91 years * 20 years 91-96 years* 21 years 96-106 years*
*sources differ on the later years This chart is based on tooth and bone growth, sexual maturity and other factors related to maturity. It is not exact but is a good comparison. Larger breeds of dogs have a shorter life span than smaller dogs, and a small dog may mature more quickly in the first few years than a large dog would.
