Hi Peter.. According to my vet, You can't be perfect. 7 Years is an average. If
You are talking a large breed, it is even greater than 7, a small breed is less
than 7. So Like my newfoundland ( giant breed ), may be like 8 or nine years
for every human year, whereas my Pug, may be 6 for every human year. or
something along those lines.
