you mean

at age 21 (147 human years)


and 21 is equal to 97 human years, according to http://www.onlineconversion.com/dogyears.htm

the 1 to 7 ratio is not meaningful, according to the website.

One of my friends has a dog that is nearly 30 years old.
And by dog I mean whale.
And by whale I mean wife.

whale of a bitch!

9/1/2009 4:39:55 PM

That whole 1 dog year = 7 human years is false, btw

9/1/2009 4:40:43 PM

i had a cat live to be 19

9/1/2009 4:47:52 PM

it varies from dog to dog. for some breeds it is true and for others it is not.

"The old rule-of-thumb that one dog year equals seven years of a human life is not accurate. The ratio is higher with youth and decreases a bit as the dog ages. Depending on breed, a dog experiences the raging hormones of adolescence anywhere from eight months to two years or more. Generally, a dog of six has aged about as much as a 45-year-old human. At 10, she's like a human of 65; at 12, a human of 75; and at 15, a human of 90. "

"Note: It is a common belief that 1 human year is equal to 7 dog years. That is not very accurate, since dogs reach adulthood within the first couple of years. The formula used above is from a canine expert and is a bit more accurate. (as accurate as one can judge these things) The formula is: 10.5 dog years per human year for the first 2 years, then 4 dog years per human year for each year after."

my mother claimed she had a dog live to 30

9/1/2009 10:57:06 PM

this has got to be a bullshit record. my aunt had a chihuahua that lived to be 21.

there must be older dogs that just aren't documented.
