A study proposes that aging may impact the genome of dogs and humans in similar ways. Researchers analyzed the genomes of 104 labrador retrievers between the ages of 4 weeks and 16 years old. Break ...

For a rough idea of a dog’s physiological age, a popular approach is to simply multiply its actual age by seven, but new research upends this piece of conventional wisdom. Scientists have developed a ...

Their study has lead to a new formula that can be used in place of multiplying by seven Researchers are saying that they’ve found a more accurate way to calculate a dog’s age — but it’s not as simple ...

Scientists have studied the epigenetic clock that's in charge of how dogs age and have created a new formula that more precisely pinpoints how old your pet is. DNA methylation for humans can divulge ...

Scientists have finally replaced the old “one dog year equals seven human years” shortcut with a formula grounded in biology, not folklore. By tracking how canine and human bodies age at the molecular ...
