Dog Age Calculator

Estimate dog age in approximate human years

Birth date 🐕

🐕 How it works

A flat “×7” rule is inaccurate. Here the first two years count faster, and each later year equals about five human years.

Breed and size strongly affect real aging — treat the result as a guide.

📐 Formula

up to 2 years: age × 12; then: 24 + (age − 2) × 5

Age includes months, then rounds. Example: 5 years → 39 human years.

❓ FAQ

Why not ×7?

Puppies mature faster; after two years the pace is closer to ×5.

Does breed matter?

Not in this formula. Large breeds often age faster than small ones.

Can I use it for cats?

No — use the cat age calculator.
