My comments on Reader's Digest article "50 Secrets Your Vet Won't Tell You"
"A cold, wet nose on a dog does not necessarily mean he's healthy. I've seen plenty of sick dogs with wet noses."

The cold nose thing is an old wives' tale (tail?). A warm nose does not necessarily indicate fever, either. If you want to check your dog's temp at home- rectal is best. Be careful- he might not like it! Normal temperature range for dogs and cats is about 101-102 degrees F.
Of course, if there are any issues you have, any questions about your pet's health, call us!
Enjoy your pets!
