Top 10 Dog Breeds That Live The Longest

Cockapoo

This hybrid dog is a mix between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, but because Cocker Spaniels typically only live between 10 and 14 years, its lifespan must be inherited from their Poodle half.

Average lifespan: 16 years

Jack Russell Terrier

These puppies are renowned for having a lot of energy. Perhaps it is what sustains them for so long.

Average lifespan: 16 years

Toy Poodle

Although toy poodles are the smallest of the group, they have the longest lifetime of all poodles and poodle hybrids.

Average lifespan: 16 years

Chihuahua

Despite being the tiniest breed of dog, they can claim of having one of the longest life spans, in large part because they are not predisposed to any significant hereditary diseases.

Average lifespan: 17 years

New Guinea Singing Dog

Have you never heard of this breed? That’s possibly because it’s the rarest dog in the entire planet. The singing howl of this wild dog, which is native to New Guinea, is well-known. Just 100 of them are kept in captivity. Despite being the oldest breed of dog still living, they are gentle and sociable around people.
