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. 

had to include this picture of maik 'running to save the day'

The dogs saved the day. 

For their actions, 

God made a cold, wet nose 

the symbol of good health for a dog.

and that is why 

dog's have cold wet noses

cold wet noses make it easy to fall in love with these four pawed creatures 

even when they do wake you at 5 am on a saturday morning

i love this picture by the way......
