just me

I love dogs (I have 2) and I have always heard that dogs' mouths are cleaner than humans, but I do not let my dogs lick my face, especially my mouth...I think it's gross, too. I love my family and friends too, but I wouldn't let them just walk up and lick my face!

I thought it was gross too before i had a dog but now i dont mind her licking my face ^.^ Oh before i forget, for a fact Dogs' saliva are way cleaner than humans' When a mother dog licks her puppies most of the harmful bacterias are actually being killed. So dun worry about the licking. Think we should start worrying about kissing some other human beings instead.

Because they love their dogs! I heard that a dogs saliva is alot cleaner than ours. That's why when they have a boo-boo they tend to lick on it to help heal it fast. That's what I heard. I had dogs but I never let them lick me on the mouth, yeah it was gross but I still loved them just the same.

Because they love their animals, and it can be no worse than changing saliva with a member of the opposite sex, can it?
Animals are honourable, honest and loyal and need affection like us humans, and while I tend to agree it isn't appropriate all the time, as we all know what they do, their tongues are a lot cleaner than most humans.

If you don't let dogs let them lick you then it will think that you dislike them. It may be disgusting but hey it lets dogs know that you like them.
