How this estimate works

The table combines a size-based dog age model with a small breed adjustment where available. It is a general estimate, not a medical measurement; health, lifestyle, and individual history can change how a dog ages.

Use the result as practical guidance and ask your veterinarian about your dog's individual health needs.
