In the beginning (1899) they were bred for herding and guarding sheep. Nowadays these dogs are used for many types of work like search-and-rescue, police and military, as a guide dog or for acting. German Shepherd Dogs are intelligent, fast, strong, and have a well developed sense of smell.
A normal resting horse has a heart rate of 38-40 beats per minute, foals (70-120 bpm), yearlings (45-60 bpm) and 2 year olds (40-50 bpm). Maximum heart rates can exceed 180 beats per minute, but a rate above 80 should be considered serious in most non-exercising horses. normal resting horse has a heart rate of 38-40 beats per minute, foals (70-120 bpm), yearlings (45-60 bpm) and 2 year olds (40-50 bpm).

If a stethoscope is available, listen to the heart on the left side of the horse's chest, just behind the elbow. Each sound of the heart is considered one beat. The normal heart rate for an adult horse is about 32 to 36 beats per minute. Foal heart rates vary depending on age. Newborn foals have a heart rate of between 80 to 100 beats per minute. Foals which are a few weeks to a few months of age will have heart rates of 60 to 80 beats per minute. Respiration
