The heart rate for dogs can be quite variable. I am attaching a handout below about physical exam findings. It lists a normal heart rate for dogs as 60-160. Generally larger dogs and more athletic dogs have a slower heart rate and smaller dogs have a higher heart rate. http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=292 I hope that was helpful and answered your question. Thanks for using PetCoach.
