Depends what they have eaten or licked just previously, the cry don't let them lick you often goes up if they have had tripe ! But generally it doesn't bother us and all the kids have been licked thoroughly at various times. None of them seemed to catch as many colds or get sick like their dogless friends either.

There are studies that show that children who grow up with dogs develop less allergies and have in general a healthier immune system than children who don't live with dogs. I'm sure some of the licking would contribute to that!

Whenever Shane puts on his football clothes Ella goes mad for his legs, especially his knees! I always say he doesn't even have to shower after football, Ella does that for him
I took a video of her the other day, Shane was just walking around the flat and Ella was following him, her tongue almost glued to his knees! It was quite hilarious.
I tend to get dressed very quickly after having a shower though

I don't mind it one bit, and in fact our first dog Ben used to very thoroughly do my feet which was heaven........he also loved faces and would pin you down in order to properly get into every nook and cranny Bitz was not a licker, and Jimmi only does so on rare occasions.

For consenting adults I think it's fine, but I would never allow it with children - not for hygiene reasons, but because it just possibly could turn into something more dangerous if the child flapped around or otherwise excited the dog.

Calvin, i'm forced to agree. It's so disgusting, especially little children. When my dog does this, I almost totally panic like NO, don't let him lick you... it's gross!

But it won't hurt you or the children and I suppose that if people don't mind it, it's really not that big of a deal. I don't like it, but to the people that do... more power to them.
