Why do dogs always lick you on the mouth?

What’s wrong with the cheek or hand? xD Does it have something to do with their instincts or they just wanna kiss you like a human?

Answer #1

That is the way the communicate and get closer to other dogs. I find animals icky so I only pet them. I get gross out when I see dogs lick peoples faces. If a dog licks my hand I can’t relax until I wash it properly.
