Chase and His Wet Nose
| got a dog for my birthday.
His name is Chase. Chase is
cute. He is fluffy and also very
friendly! Chase has a little
nose. His nose is always wet
and cold. | wonder why?
l asked my father and he
explained it to me. Dogs like
to lick their nose to keep themselves cool. They
also lick their nose to clean it. A dog’s nose can
get dirty easily since they use their nose to smell
everything.
Another reason why a dog's nose is wet is because
dog's can't sweat through their skin like we do.
Instead, heat is released through the dog’s nose
and mouth. This makes the nose stay wet. | looked
at Chase and smiled. He is a pretty awesome dog,
wet nose and all!Fillin the blanks with the helping words provided.
