How Old Is My Dog?... Use This Dog Age-Human Age Equivalent Chart

You've heard for years that to figure a dog's age in "dog years" you should just add 7 to each year that your dog has been alive. That should give you the human equivalent of your dog's age, right?

...Wrong!

Thanks to Vicki Davis, Executive Director of the Tri-County Humane Society, now you can accurately tell the age of your dog... in dog years.

She says this chart reflects the most accurate dog ages, compared to human ages:

Dog Age / Human Age
6 months	10 years
8 months	13 years
10 months	14 years
12 months	15 years
18 months	20 years
2 years	24 years
4 years	32 years
6 years	40 years
8 years	48 years
10 years	56 years
12 years	64 years
14 years	72 years
16 years	80 years
18 years	88 years
20 years	96 years
21 years	100 years
