The bigger the dog, the shorter their life span. For example, the Bullmastiff has an average life span of 8.6 years while that of the Miniature Poodle is 14.8. But along with the life span averages, also take into consideration the different factors that can affect the lives of dogs such as how well they are cared for, what they eat, and how they are treated - physically and emotionally.

People don't understand dogs need exercise. They'll leave them in the house or pen and they get no exercise. They'll hunt them and then at 8 they'll put them in the pen and they get Diabetes like everyone else.

Throw a ball for a dog and it's good to have a swimming pool to tnrow the ball for the dog and for hot weather.
