I love dogs. I had one as a teen and never had one since. I called him Coffee because it was an easy unusual name that was unique. Not many people drank coffee in our family back then.
But I never in my life could ever understand people who ‘kissed’ their pet. I have a friend with a tiny dog and she loves picking it up, kissing it and letting the dog lick her lips.
I always just keep imagining that this is the same pet that licks its butt and the butts of other dogs when they get together, or doesn’t mind digging into the garbage, licking rotting food or taste testing random feces it found.
We do the same as well … but that’s the only taint I would go near … I don’t like the idea of getting involved with any other human or any other species or any combination or quantity in between.
Well they also shit and don’t wipe and that’s never given a second thought. It’s mostly clean after sure but let’s not kid ourselves, they’re getting shit particles on stuff. If you let your dog on any furniture, which like cmon why wouldn’t you, then that’s another contradiction. They are definitely getting nasty things on them and you end up laying on the couch one night without a thought, again.
You also have mites that live in your eyelashes. The world is a pretty gross place and being grossed out by some dog saliva, when they just wanna love you, is a weird double standard that I’d have to reconcile if I agreed.
My dog will eat condoms and menstrual pads out of the trash and drink piss water in the toilet the the kids never flushed. I’ll never let that sicko lick my face
Humans actually have more bacteria in their mouths than dogs, and most of the diseases we have aren’t zoonotic amongst each other so you’re actually a higher risk for smooching a human.
The only real risk is if you feed your dog raw chicken or they live with a litter box. So go ahead and kiss up! The world could always use more love, and it’s delightful for both parties!

I kiss my wife and I lick her butt too.

My dogs like to go into the trash too, so you know what I do? I keep the trash bins in cupboards and closed rooms.
They’d also drink out of the toilet, but you know what I do? I close the lid.
I get that with kids it would be hard to be consistent with these things, but there really are some very simple solutions.
Do you think those things permanently become a part of their mouth or something?
How do you feel about kissing people? Think of the things they’ve done in the past… This doesn’t really hold water.
You can be reasonably sure your SO has not drunk out of the toilet today. Your dog, less so.
Speak for yourself buddy. /s
Same. It’s a level above fucking disgusting. And I love my dog like my kids.
