It isn't bad to be licked by a dog, but it isn't sanitary. Some dogs tend to eat their stool and eat from the trash. So just don't let them lick you in the face and youll be fine.

It can be bad to get licked in the face by a dog. If they have any worms they may transmit them to you. If you don't mind the risk of sharing parasites and disease, I guess it is not bad.

I've let my dog make out with me for 7 years and I'm fine. Just make sure your dog doesnt lick themself before they lick you and you'll be fine.

If you want your dog to lick your face but have it be cleaner, you can buy dog toothpaste at the pet store.

WARNING: Do NOT use human toothpaste on your dog. Dogs can not spit so it will make them extremely ill.

I wouldn't imagine so given what they do with their mouths and tongues. On the other hand if you are reasonably healthy already it's not likely to harm you especially if you wash your hands thoroughly before touching your face or eating your food.
