Explain why dogs pant during hot summer days using the concept of evaporation.

Asked by sonyvickey85

Answer (2)

Dogs pant because they can't sweet out their heat so they pant it out (and drink water) to cool themselves down.

Dogs pant in hot weather to cool down using a process called evaporative cooling. When they pant, moisture evaporates from their tongue and mouth, absorbing heat and lowering their body temperature. This method is essential for dogs since they do not sweat like humans do.
