A cold,
wet nose is one sign of good health in dogs and cats. However, even a healthy
pet can have a warm dry nose on occasion. And really sick pets can also
have cold, wet noses. What does this all mean? Simply that any one indicator
of health is not 100% accurate all the time. Sick pets with cold noses
should be seen by your veterinarian. By the same token, pets with warm,
dry noses that are showing other symptoms such as lethargy or are not eating
should also be seen by a doctor.
