When our black Labrador retriever passed away last year, I had no idea how old she was in human years until I saw a chart in the veterinarians office a few weeks back. On the chart it gauged a dogs age according to their weight combined with how old they were. According to the chart, our dog passed away at the ripe old age of a 93 year old human. She was over 55 pounds and was 15 years old.
When dogs age they only have a few extra needs. They don't need face lifts, top wrinkle creams, hair dye or butt lifts. Can you imagine if they did? All they need is easy to digest food, their teeth checked often for wear and a place to rest out of the cold weather.
