Retrospective study of allometric relationship between heart rate, electrocardiographic parameters and bodyweight in dogs [PDF]
Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2019 The allometric relationship between bodyweight (BW) and heart rate (HR) has been described as inversely proportional in domestic species, but that has been refuted. The relationship between HR and electrocardiographic variables is described in literature.
