Dogs can be affectionate when they want to be, and licking you is one of their best ways to show it.

When a dog licks you, it is essentially saying “I love you”, but sometimes a dog may even lick you to “clean” you, although the former is the more likely of the two.

Now of course, there are many people who don’t like being licked. They think it is repulsive.

However, seeing as this is one of the only ways a dog can express its love and affection, you’re basically telling your dog not to love you by not letting it lick you at least once in a while.

So, consider how your dog feels if you decide not to let it lick you. It might even feel hurt, although most times, it’s just a tad confused.
