Turns out I’ve been estimating my dog’s age wrong, because “just multiply by 7” is NOT a real thing! The whole “my dog at 1 is like a human at 7, at 2 they’re 14, etc.” is not backed by any research! Instead, geneticists created this chart - and it’s CURVED What they’re measuring is the same kind of biological marker researchers are using to study how WE age!. To find out more, follow along! #Science #ageing #biology #dog #genetics
