Itâs a bit gross. Your animals should have their own bowls where left overs are transferred when done eating. I donât see anything with sharing your food, but eating utensils no! And thatâs why I wonât eat at just anyones homes. People do some pretty gross things!

First off, I love dogs more than people.
With that being said, mine have their own dishes & I personally donât like them licking ours. Yes they get thoroughly washed but I still prefer to keep them separate.

We let our dog do this but then we wash it both by hand and in the dishwasher which has a sanitizing cycle so to me I donât see an issue.

Iâm anti germs and ocd about a lot of shit but if I let my dog eat people food (she cant, sheâll have the sh*ts) I think Iâd let her lick the bowlâŚthen just rinse it real good and soak it in hot water before washing with soapđ¤ˇââď¸
That grosses me out ! Iâm with you.

Iâm not going to lie, Iâve let my dogs do it before on occasion. But afterwards I will bleach and wash whatever bowl/plate they have licked off of. Better/cleaner to put the food in the dog bowl honestly.

Nasty!! Iâm with ya! Iâm white and think its disgusting. My aunt is Mexican and she married my white uncle and she lets the dogs eat out of her bowls.

My animals have their on bowls but who cares ill let them lick my plate clean if I wish. Anyway her dog was licking a bowl that was fixing to be washed so she didnât have to rinse. It doesnât matter about your skin color. I saw a tribe in national geographic of a woman non white laying in a hammock her baby at one bresst nursing & a puppy on her other breast nursing. Is that gross to you? Weird to me & I wouldnât do it. But itâs w/e floats your boat
Itâs going to be washed calm down.

Oh my , some of these comments ! If you have a dog or a cat chances are you have faeces in your home , Iâm not meaning crap
On the floor Iâm talking animals walking in it , cats scratching in litter and then itâs okay for your cat to have crap on itâs paws and then walk the table
Or walk the couch and so on ⌠Licking out of a bowl is nothing ⌠Worry when itâs not being cleaned

for those asking why skin color might affect a reaction about dogs. Generational Trauma can pass fear of dogs down, and perception of dogs as companion as pets. I still feel it was an over reaction. but something to consider why, not saying this is why op didnât like itâŚit is why some people might have certain thoughts about dogs. Why do so many Black Americans Have a Fear of Dogs?
You are dramatic af!!! I bet that dogs mouth is 10x cleaner then yours! I would of told your ass to get out if you donât like it 
my pets are family so yeah Iâm going to be defensive about it. Itâs being washed anyways. Grow up
UhâŚwe give our dogs the bowls to lick out of before going in the dishwasherâŚ
Wash a bowl out after the dog has licked it clean. Total slime coating left behind. the dishwasher removes it tho⌠up to youâŚ

It doesnât matter whether one grew up in a black household or white household. Itâs who grew up with dogs and who grew up with no dogs. As long as the dish is thoroughly washed, no harm done.
We go to restaurants without knowing how our dishes were washed before we ate off of them.

I personally feel its gross but I know people that will share food with their animals, let them lick them on the lips ect ⌠If I know you have a pet I donât eat at your house until I know your not them people⌠when I was younger I have a dog and I loved her and wouldnât think anything of her lucking my hand or cheek so Iâm not against loving your pets but we always had a separate knife for cutting up the dogs food and she had her own bowl , same for not having cats on the kitchen counter is a no for me

Donât think itâs a big deal at all. Washing your hands with soap and water has been proven to be best management for spread of germs. One could gather that soap and scalding water that can remove food from plates would sterilize plates
We call our little dogs pre-washđ

Yes, itâs gross and disgusting. But we do it anyways. Unless itâs something thatâll hurt them to eat, we always let our dogs âcleanâ the bowl or plate. However I can see how others are grossed out by it, thatâs why weâd never let guests see us do it 
. But I also wash my chicken before cooking, because I know how to properly clean a kitchen. Iâm just a rebel like that.For the record Iâm a 49 year old mixed woman married to a 53 year old mixed man. (Both of us black/white).

ALMOST all white families, and Iâm sure other non-white families too, let their dogs lick the bowl before putting it in the dish washer (or handwash in the sink)- which has extremely hot water and sanitizing the dishes.
Plus, the dog gets to have a treat by licking the bowl.
I would never let a dog or cat lick out of the dishes we serve or eat food on, they should have a dish for them!!!

If you are black you know that anything the dog eats from or licks is never going to be used by another human being. But dogs are literally children to white people. They leave them inheritances. A dog and my child arenât getting along, what should I do? Ans: Sorry, the child has to go. Should I mortgage my house to get money for an expensive surgery for my dog. Ans: That goes without saying, you have to mortgage the house and save that poor dog. You can Iive on the streets but you have to save that poor dog.
