New Dog Age Calculator Helps You Find Out

I've always been a bit confounded about how to best figure out my dogs' actual age...particularly because I probably don't like accepting the fact that they are getting older. Ignorance is bliss, right?

When figuring a dog's age, do you multiply how long your dog has been alive by 7? That's the calculation I've always been told to follow, but is that accurate? It would seem that a dog's breed and size plays a big part in their overall life expectancy.

If you have equally been in denial about your dog's actual age or perhaps just didn't know how to best calculate their age, Pedigree has developed a handy and more accurate way to determine how old your dog's age is in dog years with their handy online calculator which I discovered courtesy of our friends over at The Fun Time Guide .

Solve the mystery and use this dog age calculator to find out your dog's real age -- in dog years.  

NOTE: It may look like your dog is getting really old fast within the first couple of years, but notice that after your dog reaches the age of 3, you are only adding 4 years to your dog's age each year.
