Dogs only have sweat glands in their noses - those that do, depending on the breed - and in the pads on their pores, which are insufficient to keep the animal cool on a hot day, so they pant. This allowe slaiva to evaporate from the tongue, and for hot air to be exhaled and cool air inhaled, which has the desired effect.
