⚡ CalcWolf Insight
A 2024 study in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association analyzed 584,000 dog health records and confirmed that mixed-breed dogs live approximately 1.2 years longer than purebred dogs on average. However, the variation within breeds is larger than between breeds — a well-cared-for purebred outlives a neglected mixed breed.
