Do you let your dog lick you?

Post by Steve on Tue Jan 04, 2011 6:59 pm

Do you let your dog lick you? If you do, do you put limits on the licking (no mouth or face licking) or it just doesn't matter where your dog licks you?

I'm sorry to say that although I don't encourage licking on the face, Dempsey often gets away with a couple of slimy wet ones!

I don't usually let Buster lick me, which is probably why he gets one in whenever he gets the opportunity. However, on one occasion after a few drinks I decided to let him lick me as much as he wanted. I even let him gently chew my lip. Subsequently my lip was a bit tender the next day. nerd

I dont let any dogs lick my face, Steve lets Bezial groom his beard, my daughter lets Qi tounge kiss her (EWWWWW!!!) and my oldest daughter spends her time washing her hands furiously if any of the dogs even sniff at them so you have a very wide variation in answers so I dont think that I can choose one answer to rule them all!

I've gotten used to it...hated it at first and I discovered if I let him lick me as much as he wants when I get home from work, he's fine after that. It's sort of like he's re-establishing his claim or something. Licks a little bit when we wake up in the morning and, if I don't go out, that's just about it.

I let Suki give me kisses whenever she wants. She is also notorious for giving kisses to everyone she meets rolling on the floor

Well when I say to Jethro "give mummy a kiss" he licks the side of my face, and now Winston already knows that too! But sometimes instead of a lick.. he will try to bite my nose!! ( normally I am ready for him .. but he has taken me by surprise a few times!! ) Laughing

gggeeessss, letting a Staffy have alcohol? is that really a good idea, do you think? once, when Bundy was about a year old, I think, my coffee got knocked over and he got a few laps before I could stop him, I swear the caffeine made him a bit more hyper than usual.

Milly wants to kiss all the time she wants to lick us when we have just come in i think that is because she has missed us.What we find annoying is she always wants to lick our feet all the time and she tries to nibble our toe hails

Yup. Shwoing affection to your 'packmates' is part of natural life for a dog so Casey can lick me wherever she wants ad whenever but a dog licking you is just as unhygeneic as a person kissing tbh! sick

I don't encourage it but I don't get mad at Russell when he does lick me, I just push him away if I don't feel like it!

If you put you face next to Mia's and say kiss she'll give a little lick on the cheek!!

Other times she just goes crazy licking and I have to get the oh to remove her from me as she pins me down on the floor!!

She licks and nibbles my hubby constantly too! Which lasts about 2 minutes before she gets too much!!

Leia does lick us but not for long. we ask her for a kiss and she gives us one lol. She loves licking ears which can be annoying. I understand why people hate it but probably more hygenic than kissing children sometimes ha ha.
