About this document
Dog Saliva by jsimoneau1467 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Dog saliva contains proteins called histatins that can help defend against infection and may promote faster healing of wounds. Research indicates that wounds licked by dogs can heal twice as fast compared to those that are not licked. However, while dog saliva has some antibacterial properties, allowing dogs to lick wounds is generally discouraged due to potential harm.
