Use the dog’s birth date and the current date
Subtract the birth year from the current year
If the current month and day are before the birth month and day, subtract 1 from the result
The final result is the dog’s age in years
For age in months, count the full months between the birth date and current date
For age in days, count the total days between the birth date and current date
For a rough human-age estimate, use 15 for the first dog year, 9 for the second, and about 5 for each year after that
For more accurate aging, consider the dog’s breed and size because they age at different rates
