When dogs are breathing heavy it can be a sign that something is wrong. Heavy panting can be caused by heatstroke and their tongue can turn dark red, purple, or blue if they are suffering from heatstroke. The dog should be moved to a cool place and given cool water and if their temperature is over 104 degrees, you should get them to a vet.
Contrary to a popular myth, having a purple tounge does not indicate the dogs breed in any way. Purple, blue, and black spottings on the tounge/mouth (ans sometimes covering the whole toungue), are nothing more then large deposits of melanin, much like a freckle. It can be found in every breed of dog, albeit some are more suspectable such as labs and chows. The coloring does not effect the dogs health in any way.
