Lola the Senior?

Yesterday we went to the Performance Dogs in Action facility in Pleasant Grove, CA for another Splash Dogs event.   Lola got to go, and I registered her in the competition.  When it came time to compete, they announced her in the Senior division.  Yes, Lola “officially” qualifies as a senior dog now, I suppose, at over 7 years old, but I still think of her as my funny, silly little *puppy*.   Actually I think they shouldn’t qualify as seniors until at least age 10 or 11.   Yah- just did the math.  If the equivalent of dog to human years is 1=15, 2=24, 3+=24+(4 * (age-2)), then she is only 24+(4*5)=44.  That’s nowhere near a senior.  Sheesh!  I think there’s another age chart that takes into account the size of dog, but I’m too lazy to look for it right now.

Here’s Lola!
