I can never understand why people let dogs lick their faces.

Dog saliva is cleaner than a human's. Fact.

Joking aside, I read it somewhere (I can't remember for the life of me where) that you have much less chance of infection from a dog bite than a human bite. Speaking only for myself, I can't lick my plums or my bum, but I do struggle to work out how dog saliva is less likely to cause infection than a human's. I read it in a respectable publication, too, not The Sun or anything.

Leaving any infection issues aside, it stinks.

When I was a kid my grandad used to say that if you had a cut or a graze and a dog licked it then it helped to heal it.
Turns out he was right as it's been proved that dog saliva has antibacterial properties.

Dogs licking faces vs cats jumping on you with their paws after using them to throw their own shit about in a littertray or in your garden.
My cat used a JCB to dig a hole to shit in.
