How does the cats respiratory system work?
This is the best explanation I could gather. Hopefully, this helped you. The respiratory system is responsible for taking in oxygen and eliminating waste gases like carbon dioxide. Because dogs and cats do not sweat through the skin, the respiratory system also plays an important role in the regulation of temperature.
Will amoxocillin for humans treat respiratory infection in a dog?
do vets perscribe the same kinds of antibiotics to dogs that are used for humans?
If humans hyperventilate they develop respiratory alkalosis with tingling dizziness and carpopedal spasm Why don't dogs have the same problems when they hyperventilate to control temperature?
Because a dogs respiratory system is different from a humans. More accurately, dogs don't hyperventilate when they pant. They are breathing at higher frequencies, but they are ventilating dead space in the airways and not increasing gas exchange relative to metabolic rate. The definition of hyperventilation is a decrease in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood, which doesn't occur in panting dogs. A more correct term for the increase in ventilation that occurs when dogs pant is hyperpnea.
What is the difference between a cats Cardiovascular System and a humans?
Actually, there is no difference at all, other than the size differences. This is the same with dogs. :)
Can humans and dogs get the same virus or hacking cough illness?
To the best of my knowledge, no - I can't think of a viral respiratory illness in which the same virus infects both humans and dogs. Both humans and dogs can become sick with influenza, but the viruses are different (humans tend to get H1 and H2 versions while dogs currently have an H3N9 version running around).
Can a dog transfer a cold between humans?
They can, but they may not show the same or all symptoms. A cold will not affect them the same way, the biggest problem is that they can give it to humans... and they are sneaky strep throat carriers too!
How long the dog cold last?
Dogs do not get the same cold as humans. Dogs get upper respiratory infections or canine bronchitis. These illnesses typically last between one and two weeks without treatment.
What is the difference between a dog eye and a human eye?
I think that the difference between human eyes & dog eyes is that all dogs are color blind but not all humans are color blind. We can see in color as dogs cannot.Yes this is the maindifference but I would like two point out that through dogs are color blind that they do indeedsee in color but they are missing a type of cone that humans have and they have way less. Dogs have a lot more rods then humans.
Does it make a difference what the dog eats What is the difference between a dogs mouth and a humans?
a dogs mouth is not a far contraction from a human's mouth the dog mouth is more wider and the guy that told you before is wrong the dogs mouth sweats for it that's why a dog doesn't sweat
How is dogs anatomy similar to humans anatomy?
they both have a reproductive system, they both have hearts, lungs......
Is an upper respiratory infection contagious to other dogs?
Yes, although I don't believe the strains are similar or contagious between humans, cats, dogs. In other words, the strain dogs get can only be spread to other dogs (commonly known as kennel cough), the strain cats get can only be spread to other cats and the strain humans get is also known as the common head cold.
How are dogs and mice different?
