(Flat-Faced) Breed
Due to their genetic disposition, these flat-faced breeds have shorter bones in their noses and faces. This causes airway problems.
To Cool Off
Simply put, when dogs pant, they move hot moisture-filled air in and out. This air evaporates moisture from their tongues and wet noses, which allows them to cool down.
Excitement
You might have noticed them eagerly trotting around and panting excessively when you tell them it’s time for their walk or if you reach for their treats.
After Playing
Your dog might become restless if they have pent-up energy. An excellent way to burn energy is to go outside and play with them for a bit.
Anxiety
Sometimes dogs become restless because they’re anxious. Just like humans during anxiety spells, they might start shaking and panting too.
