His heart and lungs sounded fine. We took two chest xrays and they both looked good, nothing abnormal appeared. He was fine and friendly, even good for the blood draw. We'll have those results in a couple days.
He did test positive for Lyme, however, so he'll be getting a course of doxycycline, but basically he checked out well.
He may just be overly anxious and excitable. When he lays down he closes his mouth and is quiet. Seems that he may just be a mouth breather.

Positive for Lyme? Well join the club, buddy. That could affect his breathing.
He really is an adorable guy! My guy is a heavy breather too- I think it's excitement.
Love the hummingbird pix! Radix is a big handsome fellow. Hope he recovers quickly.
My rottie is also a heavy breather, especially when riding in the car. I think he gets overheated easily, he usually settles down if I put on the a/c. He is also prone to drooling heavily on my shoulder; he's really quite the charmer ;)
