The horse is the only domestic species to sweat as a primary method of heat dissipation. Higher primates (i.e., monkeys, apes, and humans) also cool off by sweating.
The other species do not sweat and use different methods to cool down. Pigs wallow in mud to cool by evaporation. Cats and dogs sweat a small amount through their paws, but dogs predominantly pant to cool off.
Cattle and sheep do not sweat efficiently and rely on respiration to cool themselves.
