How Young is Your Dog?

Petey on Activities - Mon, March 17 2008

The DogAge Test measures your dog's biological age in people years, based on your dog's health, breed, risk of disease, and behavior. You’ll also receive personalized recommendations to help your dog grow younger!

That was fun! Maddie is 19.3 and 7.5 years younger than average for a Papillon (the breed most like her) and Sydney is 19.5 and 7.9 years younger than average for an Australian Cattle Dog, which she resembles most.

I really liked this. Of course it helps that we came out way ahead of the average. Charlie is 4.9 in people years and 1.8 years younger than most dogs his age (I chose hound for him). Sheila came out at 48.9 years which is 14 years younger than most dogs her age (I chose Aussie Shephard for her).

I think this is interesting, but obviously biased. They dock years for getting extra, 'people' food and for using a minimal vaccine protocol. The boys, however, are still quite healthy. Wiggles is 53.6, which is 20.3 years younger than other Bassets. Gunner is 26, which is 11.2 years younger than most Shorthairs his age. Miles is 11.4, which is 4.6 years younger than most Bassets his age.

That was fun thanks for sharing Petey. It said that I'm 11.3 measured in people's years and that I'm 4.7 years yonger than the average dogage for my breed.

I think this speaks very highly about how well we all care for our dogs!

It also took off if you fed a homemade diet, but the Bat scored well anyway and it was fun.
