Wonderful knowledgeable peeps 💪
🌟PART TWO
🌟 Why panting for some breeds is ineffective to naturally help to cool down
We all know by now that dogs cool themselves down by 2 main methods
💨Natural Cooling Ways
🥵Panting: This Evaporates moisture from their respiratory tract by moving air over moist surfaces in the tongue, mouth, and lungs to release heat.
🐾Paw sweating: Minor sweat glands in the pads provide a tiny amount of moisture release.
But
And again here is the scarey bit for some breeds ‼️
🐶Brachycephalic (flat-faced) dogs struggle to cool themselves because shortened snouts and narrow airways make panting highly inefficient.
⚠️This causes them to overheat up to 14 times faster than other breeds.
YES 1️⃣4️⃣ X faster
and from Part One you already know you only have that very small window of a few degrees from fine to not fine ⛔️
Managing ALL dogs environment is vital as they can’t do it all themselves
For flat faced breads this is CRITICAL
Only yesterday I saw a FB post of a French Bull dog being left in a car in a supermarket carpark ! 😡😡😡
You do not need to take your dog to a supermarket so leave them at home !
📆⏰ Stay tuned for tomorrow at 7pm for PART THREE
Please keep sharing together we can try and educate 🙌
