Is it normal to kiss your dog?
Mostly.Normal for most people
Yes—lots of people kiss their dogs as a way of showing affection. Some people find it gross, so it’s mostly a matter of personal comfort and basic hygiene.
Plenty of dog owners give their pets a kiss or cuddle. It’s a sweet little sign of affection, and your dog may enjoy the attention too—though dogs aren’t exactly thinking, “Ah, a kiss!” the way a person might.
Opinions are split on the grossness factor. Dog mouths and faces can carry germs, so it’s sensible to avoid kissing near your mouth or on broken skin, and to wash your hands after handling slobbery toys or treats. But a quick kiss on your dog’s head? Very ordinary.
