    Dax wasn't ever one to even do personal "cleaning" but I taught him licking me was okay on the hands or arms. Never on the face. Boomer also doesn't self clean, but given the chance he will lick anywhere he can get to skin. So we know to be prepared to prevent the face licking. Hand/arms are okay. Kilo is another who doesn't do any self "cleaning" but he's also not one to lick except very occasionally. And he restricts himself to hands/arms. I do have to watch Boomer with grandchildren when they visit. Overall, I won't allow a dog to lick me in the face. Hands/arms I do allow.

    Mine has always licked my face & sometimes got me in the mouth (accidentally) & I never got anything. Of course I never fed mine raw food. Kids & Dogs can pass Strep Throat back & forth, so its best to try to teach your Dog not to lick you or kids in the mouth & teach kids to wash hands before they eat. I think any indoor Dog that’s had All it’s Shots & is on Heartworm Med that also treats for parasites ( worms ) is safe for kisses & licks!!💕

    He will follow me to the bedroom and stand at the door as I’m getting ready for bed. He will not come to me when I ask him to go Night night but as soon as I take my clothes off he runs up for me to pick him up to put him in bed. He is so funny.

    So basically as long as your dog doesn't eat poop it's fine if they lick your face. If the bacteria count between a dog's mouth and human's mouth is that similar... and it's ok for your partner to kiss you on the mouth/face... it's fine if the dog kisses your face.
