Metal conducts heat very well; the heat of your feet will be carried away quickly on a metal floor, causing you to feel cold - because of the loss of heat.

That depends on the size of the dog and how much fur it has. A small short-haired dog would probably be uncomfortable in the cold, but as much as a human with no coat. Of course, most animals would be very cold if they did not have enough protection and it was cold enough. A large dog such as a husky that has a lot of fur would probably not feel the cold at all.
