Convert your dog's age from human years to dog years with our scientifically accurate calculator
Did you know?
The old "1 dog year = 7 human years" rule is a myth. Our calculator uses a more accurate formula based on recent scientific research.
Our calculator uses the latest veterinary research that accounts for the non-linear aging process in dogs, providing much more accurate results than the old "multiply by 7" method.
Dogs age faster in their early years and slower as they get older. Our formula adjusts for this, giving you the most accurate conversion possible.
The traditional method of multiplying a dog's age by 7 doesn't account for the fact that dogs mature much faster in their first two years of life. A 1-year-old dog is roughly equivalent to a 15-year-old human, not a 7-year-old.
Our calculator uses a logarithmic formula that more accurately reflects how dogs actually age, giving you a better understanding of your pet's life stage.
