Dogs breathe through their noses when their mouths are closed. However, when their cavernous mouths open for a yawn or a pant, then the air can also enter their lungs through the esophagus via the mouth. You can find the evidence of this "husky" truth by bringing your hand close to Fido's oral cavity. By placing your hand in dire danger of being licked by your possibly poop-loving puppy, you can feel the hot breath filter through your fingers. Thus proving that dogs can indeed breathe.

Can dogs breathe through mouth when asleep?
Yes, in a way. You may not know it, but when you breath through your mouth, you breath through your nose a little bit too. And when you breath through your nose you breath through your mouth (if its open). Dogs can do the same, usually in the summer, they breath through their mouths to cool off, right? So they need to smell, a lot, so during the summer they usually do both (unless its air conditioned).
