How to calculate your dog's age?
What is your dog's age in human years? The topic that I am writing this article on is something that has intrigued me a lot over the years. I have always loved dogs and wished that they lived as long as humans . Sadly, we don't always get what we wish for. Delta is currently one and a half years old. Even though I always refer to him as my baby boy, deep down I know he is anything but a baby. So how do I find out your dog's age in human years?

So every time you wish to calculate the human age equivalent for any dog, multiply your dog's age with 7. As per current research, the above mentioned formula does not hold true for calculating a dogs age in human age. Other articles you might find inte......
