Sorry, dog and people lungs work the same way and use the same chemistry.
If there are any differences at all, they are minor enough for good
research to be done, which is why such research is done with dogs by people
who HAVE looked into what the differences and similarities are and found
the similarities vastly outweigh any difference where some specific
application is concerned.
 Otherise, research would be like Swiss cheese is the same color as the
moon, therefore the moon must be Swiss cheese....mice eat cheese, so the
holes in Swiss were made by mice and mice made all those craters.
Oh wait!  That's all true! ..and that half a million miles of vaccuum
between mice and the moon is between my ears!  No wait!  There's no vaccuum
if there are rocks in it!  I saw an asteroid!

 When, not if, people pant, they also evaporate water and cool off.
Runners do it often.
  You're talking about two different ways to use the same system and
properties of evaportion. People just have more options.
 People don't have to pant because they can perspire and evaporate water
externally 'as well as' internally through the lungs to refrigerate the
blood, but that has nothing to do with how the lungs absorb oxygen and
expel carbon dioxide, their basic functions, tissue structures, abilities
to handle impurities or how evaporating water refrigerates.
 If you transplated dog lungs into people, the person would still not have
to pant to cool off and wouldn't do so unless the primary system
[perspiration evaporation] were overloaded.

Saying that a dogs lungs are different because dogs have to pant..while
people only 'can' pant to the same effect, therefore particulates take an
entirely different route..is like saying that people can't walk because
they don't have enough feet.
 While that might be a sort of sideways 'truth' from a dogs point of view,
it's only because dogs don't know much about walking on two feet...and
that's not because they 'can't' walk on two feet...most of them just never
looked into doing it, those that have don't do it very well and bark out
silly arguements against it. [perhaps citing the fact that people who do
that tend to fall over more than dogs...those stupid people]

BTW, dogs don't walk on their feet. [They walk on their toes] The first
bend in a dogs hind leg is its ankle. 
 People can walk on either. People have more options...and a more developed
sense of balance. 
People ride bicycles and 4 wheels don't need good balance to not fall
over...but the facts of locomotion mechanics are the same.

 What's with this "winning" thing?
 
I still have my feet and there is no valid arguement here to win OR lose.
 If an idea presented is more complete than mine, I'll adopt it in a
heartbeat..and keep looking for an even more complete idea. I've heard some
people call that 'learning'.
Argueing is pointless. No one ever wins anything worth winning.
 Pinheads argue over whos point is the sharpest. Well, that might be a fun
way to waste time, but it doesn't go anywhere.
[That's not to say that academia doesn't have its fair share of so called
"learn-ed" pinheads]

 Do some reading or go ask a doctor who has taken both sets apart and
actually "looked" and done a 'valid' comparison.

..then... help me change my mind.

End of non arguement.
