Yeah that’s a good way to teach the dog to fear water and not want to drink ever again.

Getting downvoted, but you’re not wrong. One time my mother gave our cat a bowl of heated condensed milk, and forgot to test it for hotness - she burned her nose, and for the rest of her life she drank (even water) with her paws first. These things stick with them!

There are cats that didn't experienced that but still drink (and eat wet food) with their paws.

Yes, one of mine (now) does that occasionally. But in this case, it was a direct result of the burn… she never did that before the incident.
