A lot of people kiss their pets or non-human animals in general. I find that very weird. I understand that it is a sign of affection but it seems so off. One reason is that I doubt whether animals really understand this. Also it seems to be on a level of intimacy to me that I find weird sharing with a pet. Not necessarily romantically or sexually (that would be even more weird and wrong and probably illegal). But it is still “more”. I am not sure whether I can really explain why exactly I find that weird.
Anyway, what is something that is weird to you but not to most other people?
I’m not quite sure what else to say here, except regarding your question about animal kisses.
Our dog Brownie likes to try to get close and lick you in the face, but I always hold back just a few inches from his attempted licks. Yet at the same time, I’ll ‘air lick’ him back, as an appreciation of his loving gesture.
He neither licks me, nor do I lick him, but he gets lots of love and pets!
So you and your dog are just…wagging your tongues at each other???
OP, you care to chime in on this?
LOL, yeah I do show Brownie a bit of loving appreciation for his attempt at showing us love. But we don’t allow him to lick our face, but it’s okay if he briefly licks our hand, that’s his signal that he needs to go for a walk and take a piss or shit.
He’s a really good dog though, he’s almost like a non-verbal autistic child. He knows how to communicate, and we understand him.
I’m truly sorry for this opinion, but that is more psychotic than actually licking your dog all over their face. I’m calling the authorities. All of them…
