[Dailydrool] Panting

[Cblatz]

In my limited experience panting can be a sign of pain,  but it can also be a sign of stress.  Considering this 15 year old dog lost his owner and moved into a home with 14 other dogs just 2 weeks ago,  I'd say it was a sign of stress.
Me,  I'd just try to make his feel as safe and comfortable as possible.
I also (just my opinion) don't think we always do our seniors a service by rehoming them.
