A member asked:

If a dog was chewing on underwear and then someone wore them could you get genital warts if the saliva directly touches your genitals?

Dogs saliva contains bacteria, funguses and parasites. All can be transmitted to you causing gastrointestinal, skin allergies and ringworm. Transmission is with wet saliva, and dogs can harbor a papilloma virus on skin that look like warts. Never heard of genital warts passed on to someone, but anything is possible if open wounds are present.
