Odie loves to lick inside my other dogs mouths. I was just watching him doing it to Acheron and it's so gross! (Although Acheron doesn't seem to mind)

He will keep doing it for as long as they let him and as the 2 big dogs are the only ones that do let him his little head sometimes disappears right inside their mouths!

He will also lick the inside of any unsuspecting persons mouth and will also try and get his tongue right up our nostrils! It's not the nicest feeling when he gets his tongue an inch or so up ones nasal cavity!

What gross or weird things do your dogs do?

my chi also loves to lick inside the boys mouth. Usually if she is excited and he tends to open his mouth and tolerate it. However if she is full on and puts her head insdie he normally walks away.

I just consider my chi is submissive and she is signalling this .

Gross things would be digging up maggotty bones and the male being very happy to lick himself in certain places.... cause he can :D

I always thought that the mouth licking was a sign of admiration/respect.

Like bowing to the queen or whatever.

I would have thought something like that too but Odie is submissive to no-one! He is 4kgs of attitude! He will also growl at Jazz and Acheron if they move their heads away while he is doing it! He tries to do it to the other little dogs but they won't stay still and let him.

He's a special little guy :D

My dobe does exactly the same thing to older dogs he admires, or who have just told him off. This is a dog who has never completely submitted (rolled onto his back) for any dog, he just runs away from those sorts of situations. Mind you, I have always intervened if things go beyond that, if the dog chases him for example. The best I've seen him do is put his head down a bit and his ears back, but with the majority of dogs he is at least an equal to, and younger ones lick his mouth and lips.

For example, today we went to the park, got drenched, and then played with a very dominant and very large olden golden retriever, owned by a little old woman who is always miles away and on the phone. Typically I avoid her, but today they arrived without me noticing, so I just kept my dog close. Her dog likes to aggressively dominate dogs, but once they submit he lets them go on their way. Now of course, my dog has never rolled for any dog, and so attracts a fair bit of attention from this guy, and seriously, it's a massive golden retriever - slightly larger than my dobe. The golden retriever eventually tried to mount him whilst he was busy waiting for a ball to be thrown, he yipped and ran away, and he's faster. He returned immediately after, head level and ears back, and gave him a bit of a kiss. They left each other alone after that.

My dog is not submissive, but he's also not interested in fighting or accepting challenges (he kinda was for a brief period at about 7-8 months but not anymore), so he does what's needed to avoid it. Perhaps your dog is the similar.
