    See my profile pic? That's how dogs react when humans try to kiss them.

    Holy crap, your avatar! I'm in tears! I need to show that to the girl who runs our rescue. Hilarious!!!

    Only one of my dogs is a face licker. She'll crawl across my face when I'm trying to sleep so she can pin me down and lick me, that's how desperate she is to lick my face! Luckily she's the smaller of the two. I don't know what it is with her and that sense of urgency. It's funny.

    See avatar-- some dogs are like people--they don't want to be kissed by a dog either.

    No. Never. But I know people who do, and it almost gags me. They aren't your children - they're animals.

    I smear peanut butter all over my face and let them lick it off because they're my BABIES!
    One of my childhood friends use to do that too.Sadly it was not his face he smeared it with.No wonder he gave his dog Type 2 diabetes

    She's gotten me because I wasn't paying attention! Really not cool and one of the most unpleasant ways to wake up lol

    Yepp, happens all the time. Sometimes when I'm eating on the couch since she's so little and quiet, she manages to jump on me and lick the inside of my mouth while I'm talking before I can process what the hell is happening. She also likes to take pieces of food off of my plate when it's on my lap and I'm not paying attention--I just look down and half my chicken is missing.

    When she does lick me on the mouth though, I move my head around so she gets cheek or chin, but she goes right for the mouth. I think it's because she knows that's where all the food goes and she's trying to savor any left overs.

    It's happened. It's not on purpose but still. When he was a puppy and we were meeting him he licked my mouth while I was talking to the guy who had him. They asked if we still wanted him, I said "we've french kissed, it's a done deal now".

    I let mine "kiss" me on the cheeks. Sometimes she will sneak attack my face though.

    This. With my cats (and dogs I've had in the past) I allow cheek kisses, but never mouth kisses.

    Nothing wrong with a little doggie love :heart: But sometimes I have to wash my face afterwards.

    I tell you what (Hank Hill voice), I'd much rather put up with a little dog slobber than let a snot-nosed little child come anywhere NEAR me when they're dirty, drooly and seven kinds of sticky.

    Dogs > children!!

    My pets are my children and they know how to give kisses on command.
  • A little dog spit never killed anyone! My 3 gi-normous dogs get me every day.

    Children get just as dirty, if not dirtier, than animals do! :tongue:
  • I let mine all the time but I also brush their teeth and give them dentastix....love my babies!
  • Guilty and I have ZERO shame!

    Dogs, being pack animals, lick the face of the alpha to show submission to him or her. A dog licking your face is him or her acknowledging your alpha role.

    Human mouths carry many more different kinds of germs. Yes, animals lick unsavory parts but they don't carry as many infectious and communicable diseases. How many of you have NOT kissed someone who was sick or had a cold not to mention variant kinds of sex with humans. If a puppy doesn't give kissies, I won't take it.

    You guys are pansies. Dogs mouths are no worse than any human, but you have no problem sticking your tongue down your partners throat. My dog licks my face all the time.

    I saw an TV episode that collected saliva from dogs and humans, and after some time in a Petri dish, they confirmed that the bacteria profile weren't that different.

    I have yet to see a human lick their own butt. Just sayin...That would be impressive if they were able to however.

    No. When my german shepherd was still alive I heard her drinking from the toilet. It was the middle of the night and I was asleep, but I still heard her lapping. Unfortunately by bedroom door was slightly ajar and she walked in and kissed my face, with toilet water dripping onto me from her muzzle. I was instantly wide awake and yelling, and thankfully, only woke up my husband.

    Are you sure. Cuz, mine acts like she thinks she's the alpha. But, then I tell her to sit down and eventually she does.

    If your kids lick your face, they ARE animals.

    Which of you let your dogs kiss your face like this?

    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRm_74JCFqv7UisJI6K201EsbTXs0ziiPReYh1FVTAiHgjk8KjqAg

    I share my ice water after a run or when outside playing and of course I let the smallest member of my pack show his affection in every way he knows how, and I give it right back.
  • I let her lick under my chin - it's something she's done ever since she was a pup.

    ETA: This partly because I have also heard that it's a sign of respect from a dog - as someone else mentioned, it's a sign that they acknowledge you as leader of the pack.

    Sometimes she catches me off guard and gets my mouth. It's kinda gross. But I figure we're in contact with so many disgusting germs all day every day that if I'm gonna get sick, I'd rather get sick from my dog - not that she's ever made me sick.

    Also, this beautiful canine bears a striking resemblance to my girl. I like it!

    I saw a video of this nature. Woman spread PB on her body then went to a dog park. She was quite popular.
