Being licked on the lips is usually harmless and unlikely to transmit rabies, which is contagious only when active and through saliva or blood into the body. With no wound and a normal dog, do not worry.
But a dog’s mouth carries bacteria and viruses that can affect your health, so rinse with clean water afterward.
