Abstract
Primarily because of the differences in size and temperament, the normal blood pressure varies from one breed of dog to another. The mean normal blood pressure for all dogs is 140 mmHg systolic, 90 mmHg diastolic; but accepted values range from 100 to 180 mmHg for systolic pressure, 60 to 120 mmHg for diastolic.
