LMAO :D
That is hilarious!
I try to make sure I let a little time pass between getting doggie kisses and the last time I saw them doing various things with their tongues.
But you know, I am sure that there have been times where I have been less than vigilant, then boom, LICK!
I ain’t turning down dog kisses. Just ain’t.
Earlier this year I had the most unfortunate opportunity to perform dog CPR when a beloved dog that I adopted suddenly died at 19 months old for seemingly no apparent reason.
She was still warm when I found her, so I tried. I’m not expert at it, but I know the process.
Aside from chest compressions, I put her nose in my mouth, clamped her muzzle, and breathed my breath into her. Didn’t even think twice about it. I would have traded places with her if I could, because she brought more light into this world than me. I couldn’t bring her back.
Anything for dogs. They are the best.
I have to admit that I let the dog lick me and share food with it also. She also shares our bed. She actually is so spoiled and finicky that she sniffs everything that we offer her and turns down anything that isn’t meat or some sort of sweet.
I am sorry about the young dog that you tried to save. As you have probably guessed from my pseudonym I have done CPR many times using a bag valve. I would think twice before doing mouth to mouth on an adult person, but my co-workers and I have done mouth on dogs and kitties that we pulled out of houses that have stopped breathing from smoke inhalation. None of us worried about catching a disease from a dog or cat.
