Ten isn’t old for a toy or miniature poodle. Had one to live until 19. Bigger the dog, shorter the life.

True. Relatively speaking, she’s far “younger” than a medium or large dog her age. However, she’s still considered a senior dog. I do pray that they both live to a ripe old age. I’d settle for 20 — and healthy.

I assumed they were Standards. Guess I could be wrong.

But even so, 10yo is plenty “mature” for any dog, to gain epilepsy. Generally that is a condition gained before or at physical maturity.
