Playing with the idea that showing their nostrils is a big sign of comfort/discomfort. Mainly because it's tucked behind the muzzle/nose skin, so it takes effort to have them actually be visible.

But it's also a sliding scale- clamping their noses tight shut can be a sign of deep discomfort and distress as well.
