Question: when a dogs nose it wet, does it mean its healthy?

Not necessarily – the idea that a dry nosed dog = a sick dog is a bit of a myth I think, dogs noses go through cycles during the day and it can be wet one moment and dry the next easily. There isn’t a direct link between body temp and the wetness of a nose so a dry nose doesn’t mean fever which some people think. So it is possible for your dog to be sick and have a wet nose!
