Can the bacteria in a dogs mouth possibly give a human being a canker sore? I have owned my dog for about four months and she is a very lovable dog and we cuddle once in a while and she'll occasionally lick my face and around my lips when we are close. I've noticed a much higher icidence of canker sores since I got her. Is she the potential culprit?
