Why does my dog always pant?
1 Answer
Dogs pant when they are hot and when they are anxious. If your dog is constantly panting you should make sure that she isn't over heated - if she has a thick coat she may need to see a groomer. Constant panting is not normal and could be indicative of disease or illness - have her examined by your veterinarian.
