a lot of misconception about a dogs nose. most of them are old wife's tales and have nothing to do with anything. a dogs nose gets cold and hot wet and dry depending on the weather such is the same as their pads and inner ears. a sign that shows a dog is not feeling well their nose will get a bit crusty this means the dog is not drinking water which they do when they are not well. as for sneezes and scratches well that's pretty normal.
