How can I accurately check my dog's pulse on their neck at home?

Question

Can we sense the pulse near dog's neck? If yes, how accurate is it?

Andrea M. Brodie, DVM · Accepted Answer

If you check your dog's pu;se at the jugular vein in the groove of the ventral neck(there is one either side), the result is correct. Count for 15 seconds and multiply by 4 and you have heartbeats per minute (Pulse frequency)
