How the Greyhound ages
The Greyhound is a large dog weighing about 60–70 lb, with a typical lifespan of 11–12 years. Like all dogs, the Greyhound matures fast early: about 15 human years by age one and 24 by age two, and then ages more quickly after that. A 5-year-old is roughly 42 in human years, and a 10-year-old about 72. This size-adjusted method reflects how large dogs actually age, rather than the flat "multiply by seven" rule, which overstates the age of young pets and understates senior large breeds.

Frequently asked questions
How old is my Greyhound in human years?
Enter your Greyhound's age above. As a guide, a large dog is about 15 at 1 year, 24 at 2, and 60 by age 8.
Do Greyhounds age faster than smaller dogs?
Yes. Larger dogs age faster after year two and have shorter lifespans. That's why we adjust the curve by size instead of using ×7.
