WHY is a dog's nose wet and cold?

Interestingly, in this condition, the dog can smell better. In dogs, mucus covers not only the inside, but also the outside of the sense of smell. This secret is produced by glands in the lining of the nose and serves as a sort of filter through which the animal analyzes smells.

Its moist nose allows it to detect even the slightest fluctuations in the air and their direction. It also has a keen sense of smell that allows it to not only pick up odors, but also to separate them from each other.
