On the AAHA canine age chart that weight falls in up to 20 lb. The calculator on this page is the PawCalculator dog age calculator: 16 × ln(age) + 31, with the senior threshold set from the small size class. The table is the AAHA chart, which changes with weight class, so the two numbers answer different questions.

Reading the numbers

At 10 years the chart reads 56 human years. That is the smallest AAHA weight class. Heavier classes read older in human years at the same birthday.

The listed lifespan is 13–15 years, so a 10-year-old is still inside the published range.
