Dogs have almost all of their sweat glands in their mouth.

They become overheated very quickly.

Drool is also a form of sweating for them.

I hope you are joking!
Both cats and dogs pant to get rid of excess heat because they don’t sweat.

On the other hand I have a cat that drools when you pet him. Supposedly some cats do that when they are happy.
