What's with the dog panting all the time?

Dogs have been panting and shortness of breath may be due to the following reasons:

1. regulate body temperature

Dogs are different from humans. They don't have developed sweat glands to dissipate heat. The only thing they can rely on is their own respiratory system. Of course, dogs have other ways to dissipate heat, such as in a ditch. When the outdoor temperature is high, the dog's wheezing will become more serious. At this time, the owner needs to take some cooling measures for the dog to make it less uncomfortable.

2. Disease problem

Many diseases in dogs have wheezing symptoms, which are related to respiratory diseases or heart diseases. If the dog has not exercised vigorously, or the temperature is not high, the dog will still have the problem of panting, which means that the dog may have corresponding problems, especially after the dog enters old age, the dog is more prone to heart disease.

3. Poisoning

Dogs eating some toxic and harmful substances will also have some adverse reactions, including panting. Poison is not only a well-known rat poison, but also many foods in life can cause poisoning reactions in dogs, which requires the owner to pay special attention to prevent dogs from eating some harmful substances by mistake.
