I found out why puppies stick out their tongues in summer 10

Heat dissipation, because the dog only dissipates heat through the tongue, or because it is thirsty, if it is hot, it will drool.

It's hot, and the puppy doesn't have hair and can't dissipate heat through **, so stick out your tongue.

Because the puppy is hot, it has to sweat 、、、

Heat is dissipated by evaporating saliva, lowering body temperature.

In canines, such as dogs and wolves, the sweat glands in the body are not very developed. They can't regulate their body temperature by sweating like humans, and it is difficult for them to lower their body temperature once it heats up, so dogs are very afraid of heat.

They drool profusely and lower their body temperature by evaporating saliva and absorbing heat. When the weather is hot, this method alone cannot be used to cool down smoothly. Therefore, it is difficult for dogs to lower their body temperature.

In the summer, puppies stick out their tongues to dissipate heat.

Because the sweat glands of the puppy grow on the tongue, the puppy sticks out the tongue in the summer to dissipate heat and maintain a constant body temperature. Dogs don't sweat and won't stop moving because of heat, the dog's body can't self-regulate its temperature, and the dog's sweat glands are all on the tongue, so seeing the dog sticking out its tongue and panting means that the dog is hot and needs to drink water to cool down or calm down and stop moving.

As soon as a dog feels a little hot, it will open its mouth, stick out its tongue, and gasp for air, which in doing so can secrete a large amount of saliva instead of sweat. Pugs, horn dogs, poodles, and Chihuas and other dogs with very small heads are not good at regulating their body temperature because of their short respiratory organs, and they are especially sensitive to heat, so they should pay more attention.

Other reasons why dogs stick out their tongues

1. The dog is thirsty

In fact, when the dog feels thirsty, it will also stick out its tongue, if your dog in addition to sticking out its tongue, there will be restless walking around, it means that it is very thirsty and looking for water to drink.

3. The dog is dreaming

Dogs also dream, when the dog is dreaming, its tongue will also spit out, so when the dog is sleeping, there is a situation of sticking out the tongue, the owner should not disturb it.

Because dogs don't sweat and don't stop moving because of heat; The dog's body cannot self-regulate its temperature, and the dog will not take care of itself and hydrate in time; The dog's sweat glands are all on the tongue, so seeing the dog sticking out the tongue and panting indicates that the dog is hot and needs to drink water to cool down or calm down and stop moving; Short-nosed dogs are more sensitive to heat and less prone to heat dissipation than long-nosed dogs.

In summer, the dog's tongue is dissipating heat, because the dog does not sweat and does not stop moving because of the heat;

As soon as the dog feels a little hot, it will open its mouth, stick out its tongue, and gasp for air, which can secrete a large amount of saliva instead of sweat. Dogs dissipate heat by vaporizing their saliva, lowering their body temperature. They drool profusely and lower their body temperature by evaporating saliva and absorbing heat.

When it's hot, this method alone won't be able to cool you down.

Therefore, it is difficult for dogs to lower their body temperature. In particular, dogs with very small heads, such as pugs, horn dogs, poodles, and Chihuahuas, are not good at regulating their body temperature because of their short respiratory organs, and are particularly sensitive to heat, so they should pay more attention.

1. Thermoregulation

A dog's body is not able to regulate its body temperature by evaporating sweat like a human would. When a dog exercises for a long time in a hot environment, it will produce too much body heat, resulting in hyperthermia, and the dog will dissipate heat by sliding its tongue and exhaling. Because the surface of the dog's tongue has a lot of tiny bumps, these bumps can expand the surface area, making it easier for the exhaled air to dissipate heat and help the dog cool down.

In addition, the color and humidity of the tongue can also affect the heat dissipation effect of the dog.

2. Oral moisturizing

Dogs have a lot of sweat glands in their mouths, and dogs drool a lot in the summer, helping to keep their mouths moist by sticking out their tongues. The saliva with a certain water content in the mouth of the dog can play a role in lubricating the oral cavity and protecting the oral mucosa. Therefore, in hot weather, dogs will be more inclined to stick out their tongues to store water, thus reducing physical discomfort.

3. Comfortable feeling

In addition to the effects of thermoregulation and oral moisturizing, dogs can also stick out their tongues because they feel comfortable. After receiving signals from the body, the dog's brain will release hormones such as endorphins to make the dog feel happy and relaxed, and the dog will naturally stick out its tongue to show a comfortable state.

4. Emotional expression

Dogs sticking out their tongues can also be a way of expressing emotions. When dogs feel nervous, upset, or scared, they will stick out their tongues to express their emotions. Because tongue sticking out is often seen as rude or mischievous behavior in human culture, tongue sticking out may also express a similar emotional state in dog language.

Hello dear, because the calendar dog will not sweat, and will not stop because of heat; The dog's hands regret that the body can't self-regulate the temperature, and the dog won't take care of himself and hydrate in time; The sweat glands of the dog are all on the tongue, so seeing the dog sticking out the tongue and panting means that the dog is very hot and needs to drink water to cool down or calm down and stop moving; Short-nosed dogs are more afraid of heat than long-nosed dogs, and they are less likely to dissipate heat. Hope mine can help you, oh dear<>
