The invention relates to a device (1) for monitoring a condition of a living being (100). In this case, the device (1) has a first sensor (2), a second sensor (3) and an evaluation device (4). The first sensor (2) non-invasively generates a measured value based on a proportion of ammonia in the sweat of the animal (100). The second sensor (3) generates a reading with respect to the respiration or cardiac activity of the animal (100). The evaluation device (4) generates, based on the measured values of the first and second sensors (2, 3), a scalar measure for a load of the living being (100). Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding method. |
