  • Turns out it's not quite true what they say about dogs' mouths being cleaner than ours.

    人们说狗的嘴巴比我们的更干净,可事实并非如此。

    You love your dog, and there's a good chance you love his kisses too. In fact, only a true dog-lover knows the joy those drool-covered kisses can bring. But some experts say it might be time to put an end to swapping1 slobber with your pooch.

    你爱你的狗狗,所以很有可能你也喜欢它的亲吻。事实上,只有一些真正的爱狗人士才知道这些口水直流的亲吻能带来多大的欢乐。但一些专家认为:也许是时候不再与你们家的狗交换口水了。

    We don't mean you need to keep your distance. There's nothing wrong with hugs and cuddles, but those kisses might just be a major risk to your health — especially when they land on your face. When licks from your dog come into contact with other intact parts of your skin, there's very little chance of absorption when it comes to disease and bacteria. Having that saliva2 end up in your nose or mouth, however, is a whole different bag of worms (sometimes literally).

    我们不是说你需要和狗狗保持距离。和狗狗拥抱没有什么不对,但和它们亲吻可能会对你的健康造成隐患——尤其是直接亲吻你的脸颊时。如果狗狗舔你的时候是直接与皮肤的完整部位接触,那么疾病或细菌是很少能被皮肤吸收到的。但如果狗狗的唾液直接进入到你的鼻子或嘴中,那么就会有完全不同的一包蠕虫袭来(有时真的是字面意思:有一包蠕虫)。

    Here are things you're at risk for every time you pucker3 up to your pup.

    每次你的狗狗在你脸上亲吻时,你都有这些风险。

    1. Gum disease

    1. 牙龈疾病

    There are lots of ways you can get gum disease, but you may not have known you can get it from kissing your dog too. One Japanese study published in the Archives of Oral Biology found that several types of bacteria were found in the mouths of both dogs and humans, meaning it's entirely4 possible they can be transferred from dog to human. Since there's a good chance your dog isn't as strict about brushing as you are, it might be a good idea to refrain from locking lips if you want to keep your pearly whites, well, pearly.

    感染牙龈疾病的方式很多,但你也许不知道亲吻自家的狗狗也会感染吧。《口腔生物学档案》上刊登的一项日本研究发现:人类和狗的嘴中都含有某些细菌。这就是说这些疾病完全有可能从狗狗的嘴巴中传到人体内。因为很有可能你的狗狗并不如你刷牙刷的那么勤快,所以如果你想保持亮白牙齿,最好还是抑制自己不要亲吻狗狗啦!

    2. Fecal contamination

    2. 排泄物感染

    Keep in mind that anywhere your dog licks, you're basically licking too if you let him kiss you on the mouth. Since it's no secret that dogs lick their own behinds — as well as the rear ends of other dogs — and enjoy the occasional "treat" from the back yard or litter box, it should be no surprise that your dog's mouth may be contaminated with fecal matter.

    记住这一点:如果你和狗狗亲嘴,那么狗狗舔过的地方,你也基本上舔过了。既然狗狗舔自己的屁股以及其它狗狗的屁股已不是秘密,所以好好享受狗狗们后面的“款待”吧,你们家狗狗的嘴巴可能也舔过排泄物,这应该不是件稀奇事儿吧。
