Science Fair Project Essay

This science fair project is designed to show how dogs heart rates increase with exercise and activities. Loads of people were wondering if older dogs’, or younger dogs’ heart rates would go up more when exercised. Well, we can show you! The hypothesis is that hopefully the younger dogs heart rate won’t go up as much as the older dogs’ heart rate. This science fair project is relevant due to people needing to recognize how to exercise their dogs according to what they can and can’t do age wise. We have also researched how much water we should give them after running, so that we can make sure they are healthy and energetic! And of course where their pulse is, that we can tell what their pulse is, and whose pulse rate will go up more.
Also that elderly dogs need more water than more youthful dogs. Beau, however is a little too plump, so he also needed a little more water than usual. But with Sophie is a fit a rabbit. This helped answer the problem statement by making sure they were hydrated enough to go out and run again. Nobody wants their dogs to be suffering because of that! In this project it is important to understand where they're pulse is so that you actually take it! In order to take the pulse we found it was by their front elbow. But because if issues we used a stethoscope. There ulses ended up being varied quite a bit. They had very irregular heart beats. It would not keep steady and very hard to tell. However, it was very helpful to know that their heart beat was supposed to be like that. And lastly, whose heart beat should be higher? This was important to know because we need to know if we did it right. The website that was used was very useful. It told us that the heartbeat of the older dog was supposed to be lower than that of Beaus. If we didn’t know this I think that We would if had a heart attack. And I don't think anyone wants to have a heart
