Why Do Dogs Have Cold, Wet Noses?
According to legend, God bestowed cold, wet noses on dogs for saving Noah’s Ark from sinking. As the story goes, a dog was on patrol when he discovered water pouring through a hole in the hull. The quick-witted dog stuck his nose in the small hole to keep water from flooding in. The second dog ran off to alert Noah, who quickly repaired the hole. The dogs saved the day.
