Since a lot of sims 2 players use a one day equals one year aging system for their sims; I think that the pet lifespan should also be edited to use the same system. I could not find one online so I just made it myself. I also put the Maxis pet lifespans here so you can compare them to my pet lifespans

Maxis Pet Lifespans
Large Dog
Puppy - 4 days
Adult - 22 days
Elder - 6-11 days

Small Dog
Puppy - 4 days
Adult - 26 days
Elder - 6-11 days

Cat
Kitten - 4 days
Adult -26 days
Elder - 6-11 days

My Pet Lifespans
Large Dog
Puppy - 3 days
Adult - 5 days
Elder - 3-5 days

Small Dog
Puppy - 2 days
Adult - 10 days
Elder - 3-5 days

Cat
Kitten - 2 days
Adult - 9 days
Elder - 2-5 days

Equal Version
If you don't like the large dog lifespan being so much shorter than the small dog lifespan, then you can use the equal version which edits the large dog lifespan to be the same as the small dog lifespan.

Tuning
If you want to edit the lifespans then you just need to open it in SimPE and edit it just like a sim lifespan mod. You just need to be aware that the numbers you put in SimPE are 1 less then the actual lifespan length. (So if I wanted the kitten lifespan to be 4 days I would put the number 3 under Kitten Min and Kitten Max.)

Known Issue
Chris Hatch's neighborhood age correct does not fix pet lifespans so all existing pets in your hoods won't have this aging system until they age up.
