Dogs, however, only have sweat glands on their noses and paws. So, if they can’t sweat from their skin to cool off, and their paws and nose won’t do much difference, they use their own tongues, and that’s why they pant.
Panting makes the air move quickly, through their mouth and tongue, which allows moisture to evaporate. So if your dog starts painting let him be! Even if you’re annoyed by its noise, remember it’s natural, and your dog is not choosing to do this, it’s just how the body of a healthy dog works.
