how many years to dogs live
Follow On: How long do dogs live is a common question. The answer requires you to consider many factors, which include breed mix and size, and environmental influences. In general, smaller dogs live longer, from 14-22 years, with medium sized dogs living 11-14 years and large dogs living 8-12 years. Mixed breed dogs tend to live longer as many purebreds suffer from breed specific genetic problems that may shorten lifespan.
