What does the dog use to dissipate heat when it is hot?

Breathe with your mouth open, sweat glands secrete from the soles of your feet, and spit out your tongue.

Dogs breathe with their mouths open and secrete sweat glands on the soles of their feet to dissipate heat. Because only the dog's nose has a little sweat glands, it is necessary to spit out the tongue to radiate the heat in the body and lower the body temperature. Its four claws on the ground can touch the ground with low temperature and can also dissipate heat.

When the weather is hot, dogs will dissipate heat through their tongues, meat pads and other places. The owner can also reduce the indoor temperature through air conditioning, occasionally take the dog to swim by the river, and occasionally feed the dog with fruit to reduce the dog's heat. In addition, dogs need a lot of water in summer, so owners need to provide enough water for dogs to avoid heatstroke due to lack of water and heat dissipation.
