    My Old Lab Cleo

    Hello everyone,

    My best friend in the world my black Lab Cleo passed away recently and I thought I would share my experiences with you. I absolutely love big cuddly dogs, Labradors are my favourite breed and a lot of people find it hard to understand my love and appreciation for them.

    I have a disability and am confined to a wheelchair and well i love doggie licks, i dont tell many people because they dont understand but the nerves in my skin are really sensitive and well because i dont walk, any sensation on my feet or any other part of my skin feels extra nice, so to me it feels like a massage, and also cause when i was young i was bed ridden a lot so my old dog used to be my best friend and lick me a lot, so i grew up with it, sorry its kinda hard to explain.

    for me the sound and sensation i love most is the feel and sound of dogs licking my face, hence why i like it so much, i know its gross to some people but its more the sound and sensation i like, i find it soothing, people think im crazy and i get ridiculed for it a lot. Does anyone else have this experience or is it just me -n545638475_137907_661-jpg

    I am so sorry you have lost your Cleo. It's you she's looking up at so soulfully? Nope, you aren't crazy to welcome kisses and licks from a dog that looks at you with love in her eyes. I hope you get more licks, maybe soon, when you're ready.

    I love dog kisses...prefer feet to face though I'll take any I can get. Even from non-family dogs as long as I know they're healthy and not poop-eaters (and I've known them long enough to know that my face won't prompt a bite instead...with some dogs, you never know).

    My favorite, though, was getting my feet licked by my little Maine Coon cat. Yep....sandpapery little tongue. The only cat I've had who was that much of a licker.

    As I noted in your "welcome" thread....I'm really sorry for your loss of Cleo. She was a pretty girl and, I'm sure, a big help to you.

    I am very sorry for your loss.
    I don't think you crazy. My father used to get grossed out when I would kiss my dogs on there faces.

    So very sorry for you loss of Cloe. They are never with us long enough. Sounds like you two had an amazing relationship.

    I doubt you will find anyone here to is not in love with doggy kisses. If our Katie licks me in the face and then I kiss DH I announce "Doggy Kiss". Even my grandkids love doggy licks. Hands and faces can be washed.

    Rest In Peace Cloe

    thanks for not judging me, a lot of people bully me because i love dog licks . I also have ASMR, Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. It is a physical sensation characterized by a pleasurable tingling that typically begins in the head and scalp, and often moves down the spine and through the limbs" for me the sound and sensation i love most is the feel and sound of dogs licking my face, hence why i like it so much, i know its gross to some people but its more the sound and sensation i like, i find it soothing
