This pup is just so cute. We don't know if we want them to open the door so he can get the pets he deserves, or to keep it closed to continue the cuteness!
Licking is vital for dogs, and the instinct is with them from birth - that's how a new mom communicates with her pups. According to Animal Planet, they will also lick their owners as a sign of submission, or even just to get good feelings and positive reinforcement. How can you resist telling your dog how good he is when he's licking you all over?
Now, you may have heard that a dog's mouth is cleaner than yours, or even that a dog's saliva has antiseptic properties. Is that true?
According to ABC News, unfortunately, no. As veterinarian Marty Becker says, "They raid the garbage can. All you have to do is look, watch, smell, and you'll realize that isn't true."
Ouch. Maybe this cutie shouldn't be put to work as a window cleaner after all! Don't worry about giving them a kiss though. The bacteria in their mouth are species-specific, so you're safe!
