When dogs breath fast, they are panting, pushing the air in and out of their longs is part of their cooling system. They also do this to cool down body temperature when they are stressed.
Dogs cannot sweat like humans and most other animals, so panting is very important in their body temperature regulation.

Dogs don't sweat like humans, so they pant, or breathe at a rapid pace to cool themselves down

They have a higher metabolism, hence the higher temperature. The breathing causes them to cool down because they don't sweat like we do.

They have no sweat glands so it's a way of cooling off faster.

we've sweat glands on our pores and skin. canines sweat by their tongue - it drips off of it, this is extremely like they are salivating. canines could desire to breath to sweat, so the warmer or greater drained they are (like, from workout ordinary,), the swifter they breathe.

Because they have smaller lungs and expend more energy quicker than we do.
