in regulating the cause of body temperature.

Ectothermic animals have poor adaptability to environmental temperature changes, and in the cold season, their body temperature decreases, and various physiological activities also drop to extremely low levels. Vertebrates such as birds and mammals that evolved to higher levels have gradually developed thermoregulatory functions and are able to maintain a relatively constant body temperature in different temperature environments, and these animals are called homeotherms or warm-blooded animals.

Behavioral thermoregulation is the process by which an animal's body temperature is not too high or too low through its behavior. For example, lizards of lower animals crawl back and forth from the shade to the sun to minimize the amplitude of body temperature fluctuations. People walk and run in the bitter cold to keep warm, all of which belong to this kind of adjustment.

Human beings can increase or decrease clothing according to the different ambient temperatures, and create an artificial climate environment to ward off heat and cold, which can be regarded as more complex behavioral regulation.

Humans sweat to dissipate heat and regulate body temperature, while dogs are very different. The apocrine sweat glands that cause its body odor are distributed throughout the body; Exocrine sweat glands are only distributed on the pads of the flesh. Therefore, once the dog is warm, it is difficult to lower the temperature, and it is a very heat-sensitive animal.

Relying on the sweat of the dog's feet alone cannot play a role in cooling down. Therefore, it is common to see dogs with their mouths wide open, sticking out their tongues, and panting, which can secrete a large amount of saliva instead of sweating. The body temperature is lowered by the outflow of a large amount of saliva, which evaporates and absorbs heat.

If your dog is long-haired, you can choose to trim or shave the hair properly, especially the hair of the dog's foot pad, which will be more conducive to the dog's heat dissipation and cooling after trimming and thinning.
