Why do dogs always pant like cows?

During the period of keeping dogs, we will encounter many problems about dog diseases. The most common phenomenon is that dogs have difficulty breathing and are panting. Faced with this phenomenon, many pet owners don't know what is going on. In fact, there are many reasons for dogs' shortness of breath, such as shortness of breath after strenuous exercise, shortness of breath caused by hot weather, shortness of breath caused by heart disease and so on. Faced with these, how should we judge what causes the dog to be short of breath? How to treat it? Let's take a look together.

1, parasite

What is the dog's shortness of breath? The first situation is that the dog is infected with parasites. You know, dogs like to explore the world by licking things. This habit makes dogs susceptible to parasites, such as nematodes and hookworms. If they are parasitic in the lungs and respiratory tract of dogs, they will affect the dog's body and easily show symptoms of shortness of breath. Therefore, attention should be paid to expelling insects inside and outside the dog.

2. Bronchial problems

Especially for small short nose dogs, with the increase of age, it is easy to show difficulty in breathing because of the relaxation of C-shaped cartilage around bronchi. In addition, bronchial inflammation can also make the trachea stiff and cause shortness of breath.

3. Heart disease

It may be caused by a heart attack. Usually accompanied by cough and retching, lack of exercise, poor spirit and other symptoms. Many dogs don't know why they are short of breath. After going to the hospital for examination, they were all diagnosed with heart disease. There are two main reasons for this. First of all, the incidence of heart disease in dogs is very high, about 10%, and almost every dog has 10 heart disease. Moreover, dogs of different sizes are prone to different types of heart disease. Small dogs are prone to heart valve disease, while large dogs are prone to dilated cardiomyopathy. Secondly, dog owners should also know that the older the dog, the greater the disease. This also reminds the owner to pay attention to the symptoms of the dog and take the dog for examination regularly.

About the reasons why dogs are short of breath, I introduced several common situations. If it is simple, such as shortness of breath in dogs caused by strenuous exercise, or shortness of breath in dogs caused by parasites, don't worry too much, it will be relieved soon. However, if it is due to shortness of breath caused by heart disease, it is accompanied by symptoms such as loss of appetite, chest tightness and asthma, and mental fatigue.
