What else can I help you with?
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.
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.

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 dogs be allergic to cat dander?

Do humans and dogs have the same hormones?
Yes and no. Humans and dogs are quite similar, so very similar hormones present in both species are often given the same name when they have analogous structures and functions. Examples of this include thyroid hormone, cortisol and testosterone. However, at the molecular level the hormones are slightly different, so chemically they are not exactly the same.
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 stronger immune system than humans, which helps them fight off illnesses more effectively. Additionally, dogs have a different physiology and lifestyle that may reduce their exposure to certain diseases that affect humans.
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!

Why don't dogs get sick like humans?
Dogs have a different immune system than humans, which helps them fight off certain illnesses more effectively. Additionally, dogs have a shorter lifespan than humans, so they may not live long enough to develop certain chronic illnesses that humans do.
