What is the typical lifespan of a dog?

Context: The typical lifespan of dogs varies widely among breeds, but for most, the median longevity ranges from 10 to 13 years. The median longevity of mixed-breed dogs, taken as an average of all sizes, is one or more years longer than that of purebred dogs when all breeds are averaged. For dogs in England, increased body weight has been found to be negatively correlated with longevity, and mixed-breed dogs live on average 1.2 years longer than purebred dogs.

Answer: The median lifespan of most dogs is between 10 and 13 years. It varies depending on the breed of the dog.
