Dogs and Cats
Sweat glands are located on their foot pads. This is called an apocrine gland to help them cool off.
Horses
Horses sweat to keep their body cools. A part of the horse's brain called the hypothalamus senses the increase. It sends signals rushing out to sweat glands distributed in his skin.
Apes
Genetically apes are the closest to humans. They also sweat around their armpits just like humans.
Bats
Bats keep cool using their tounge but are mammals and sweat as well.
