I did Piper's (Piper died a few months ago just shy of 14 yrs old) and it said she was about 67 yrs old.  I didn't even bother to try to do Carter's or anyone elses.  It doesn't ask how old they were when you got them, what their past life was like...  IMO it asks a lot of surface questions but doesn't get into the real nitty gritty of things that might age your dog.  Entertaining, but not really useful IMO.

I can personally attest to this test not being reliable.  It said Badger was 7.8 years younger than average, and he is falling apart.  He can barely walk because of his bad rear legs, has arthritis in his front legs...he is lazy and NOT 'active'.....I call shenangins!
