    My female dog loves to do this to the cats. They let her do it and when she is done they look like they dunked their head in a bowl of water.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    It's a grooming and affectionate thing I would think. I don't remember Casey (my Lab) licking the cats, but the cats would lick her sometimes. Buddy licks Tink sometimes on the head/ear. I love to see this too. Warms my heart.

    My dogs all do this...Killer especially loves to clean Keva's ears and she loves it. I think for the most part is affection/pack behavior (or they could also like the taste of earwax yuck ).

    This makes me happy. The two are very close, they will cuddle laying down, play together. Taffy follows Cass around the house.

    AW! That's just precious. All of these accounts are.
