1 year Answer A Dog's puppy stage can last up to 18 months. The general adage of the equivalent of 1 year = 7 human years isn't quite accurate. Dogs mature more quickly in their early years 1 year is around 12-15 years equivalent and 19-24 by the age of 2. Breeds are different however and some will not reach full maturity until around 3.
The American Kennel Club allows dogs to compete in the puppy class until they are 12 months of age. After that they are no longer classified as puppies.
Most dogs are generally considered to be adults at around 12 to 15 months old. The larger the breed the later maturing. Giant breeds may take two years to become adults.
It depends on the breed of dog. Small to medium dogs such as Jack Russell Terriers and Corgis mature at about 12 months. Larger breeds like German Shepherd Dogs don't mature until 18 to 24 months of age. Giant breeds such as Mastiffs are not fully grown for 3 years.
Usually an animal is considered an adult when it is sexually mature. For dogs this is between 6 months and 1 year of age. So, generally, an "adult" is greater than 1 year of age.
At almost two years old is when the physical growth and mental growth is about finished. They mature slowly.
A dog can be fixed at any age but it is best to have it done before the dog is four or five at the latest, because it will heal faster and not be as traumatic to the dog.

Your best shot at pet togetherness is to get your cat and dog when they're both young. If you've already got an adult cat, it's better to get an adult dog than a puppy. If you've already got a dog, look for a kitten or a laid-back adult cat who's lived with canines before
No. They are now considered to be adult dogs.
A kid is allowed to walk a dog at age 4 as long as a adult is around. But if adult is not around then you have to be 10 and up to walk a dog. But if is a big dog then you must be 12 and up. But if it is a very little dog and if a parent is around then you can be 1 and up to walk the little dog.
