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).

â¢ Average rate, at rest: 8-15 breaths per minute â¢ Depending on the exercise, recovery to the normal rate should be within 15 - 20 minutes. A healthy adult horse at rest will have a respiration rate just a bit lower than half his pulse rate. A horse with a pulse rate of 32 should have a respiration rate of about16 beats per minute. The respiration rate is the number of times a horse inhales and exhales each minute. (That's two actions for one beat.) Sixteen cycles per minute is an average respiration rate.
