We have one and she breathes hard and it is kind of raspy sounding during the summer. The vet says it is because she has allergies just like a person does. We have had her for about 5 years(she was a dropp off) and she has done it ever since and has been fine.

I have a terrier mix rat type dog he is 14 but over the years I have noticed he does that allot.It could be anything .My dog being old has had all tests done just because he is old .It can be anything from serous like heart and lungs to minor.If there is a heart problem you will also hear some coughing .I know alot of dogs will pant from being hot or from pain or even from having to go to the poop.Itching can even make them breath hard at night.stomach upset can do it to.Get your dog a check up .The vet will listen to your dogs heart and lungs and if he notices anything strange he will than test.Good luck .

NO, rat terriers do no longer make solid handbag dogs. plenty greater theory would desire to circulate into picking a dogs than no count if or no longer it suits in a handbag. as a count of certainty, that would desire to by no potential even circulate the strategies of somebody making plans to get a dogs. Edit: i choose a chosen motive force. i've got reached my drink cut back for the day.

Hi there. Dogs do not sweat and must cool off by panting. Have your dog checked for other causes should this not be the case. For example heart worm disease or congestive heart failure due to age and or obesity. Use your own good judgment. Have a dog gone good year.

The breed is prone to heart troubles. could be related. Get him checked out. Mine just turned 15 and he's still full of vigor.
