would this uplifting increase their lifespan too? I feel it would be cruel to gift human intelligence to a species that only lives a short time

I've seen a couple of people post this, but I don't think it would be a problem. Granting them a human level intelligence does not automatically give them human specific perspectives on things. We may find that even dogs would feel 15 years living everyday to its best is a life well-lived, and they may in fact be confused how we can tolerate living so long and doing so little in that time.
