Dogs, in contrast, have few sweat glands, and they cool
primarily by panting - a very rapid, shallow breathing that increases
evaporation from the upper respiratory tract. Some animals use a third
method for increasing evaporation: They spread saliva over their fur and
lick their limbs, thus achieving cooling by evaporation

That is the way dogs cool themselves off since they do not have sweat glands.

because of dried mouth secretions...
they get clogged up in the trachea or windpipe and the dog can be dyspneic or may have difficulty in breathing..
so to compensate for the needed air, the dog has to pant...
