ABSOLUTELY! It is one of the most common side effects of prednisone in dogs and has absolutely nothing to do with how hot or cold the environment is.
Most terrestrial animals dissipate excess heat by evaporation. This is done by either sweating (like humans) or by panting (like dogs).
Panting, dogs don't have sweat glands.
I don't know about dogs, but i just started taking it and the farts are awful
It can bring about that problem in humans so I suppose the same probably can apply to dogs.
by panting...
My dog has been panting all day.The wolf sat in the corner, panting and eyeing up the prey he has saved for dinner.
eating, biting, panting......
You can try online stores that sell legit prednisone drugs at affordable prices.
Panting is a normal process in dogs, it is how they cool down. You should not be worried if they appear to be breathing without effort and panting is the only sign you notice. Panting in cats is not normal. It can indicate anxiety, pain or a respiratory/heart problem. If your cat continues to pant, you should take it to see a vet.
The muscles begin to deteriorate when dogs are on a heavy dose of steroids such as Prednisone, often used to treat the polymyositis. My dog has polymositis, and has been on Prednisone for two months. During the last month, his back bone and head muscles have started to stick out.
Panting is effective at cooling a dog off when it's too hot. Dogs can't sweat so panting is the only natural way for it to cool themselves off.
Yes and no. If the dog has been playing ball, panting is the way dogs sweat. If the dog is giving birth, panting accompanies labor and delivery. If the dog is wounded and the wound is painful and infected, panting is an indication of pain.
