There is no start age for dogs panting. Dogs have almost no sweat glands so cannot get rid of excess heat by sweating. Panting helps rid the body of heat so dogs pant. Of course they also pant after exercise but part of that is also to get rid of the heat.

In their first year, since they do not get to do much exercise in the puppy pen this activity may be reduced, it is also reaitave to how hot their area is. You don't see human babbys sweat too much because they are cared for. In both it is a mechanism that keeps them cool
