Difference between a wart and a dog nose?

[The Other Harry]

I am going to ask my vet this, but I will start off here.

When I was a kid, I had a lot of warts on my hands. Like maybe 60. A lot. They are gone now, but I remember them. Especially the bigger ones.

I have not been able to to figure out the difference between a wart and my dog's nose or the pads on his feet. They seem the same.

Anyone know?

Hurrah!

I've been waiting for your vanity all night!

Your dog's nose is made from dog DNA.

A wart is a virus infection of the skin, and is a tumorous growth caused by virus genetic material taking over and altering the growth of skin at the infection site.

Warts are caused by a type of herpes virus. Your dog's nose and the pads of his feet are they way they are due to genetics.

I think you get warts from licking frogs. Dogs are born with noses ... But ask your vet.

[The Phantom FReeper]

Whoops. I need to go to bed. "...they way..." should read "...the way..."

Are you for real?

I had warts on my hand when I was a kid too. I'll never forget the pain of having them frozen off with liquid nitrogen (particularly the ones next to my fingernails).

ROFLOL!

He's for real.

The difference is that you'll find warts on Bill Clinton's privates...the skin on a dog nose and pads is what you'll find under Hillary's armpits.

A wart is a virus infection of the skin, and is a tumorous growth caused by virus genetic material taking over and altering the growth of skin at the infection site.

While this may seem like a reasonable answer, I detect something strange and mysterious here.

You should be tested immediatly for dog DNA!!!!

I thought he was a Disney animatronic.

I don't think Bubba would let anyone near his privates with liquid nitrogen.Dayum.

One of them is utterly repulsive, and belongs on an animal.

I'll let you figure it out.

[afnamvet]

He MAY look like Lincoln but I'm not sure.
