Excessive panting in an older dog, even at rest, can be a symptom of several potential health issues. This can include heat stress, pain, heart disease, respiratory problems, Cushing's disease, or anxiety. It's crucial to have your senior pet examined by a veterinarian to determine the underlying cause. They will likely perform a thorough physical exam, and potentially blood tests or imaging. Early diagnosis is key for effective management and improving your dog's comfort.
