Different viruses attack different species, so something a dog, or cat, or bird can catch is not necessarily something a human can be infected by and vice versa.

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.
