Again, only according to hanafi, hanbali and shaif fiqh. Maliki fiqh states that the saliva of a dog is pure.
My understanding is that Imam Malik considered the hadiths on the saliva of dogs to be fabricated, because of Quran 5:4."They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food). Say: lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure: and what ye have taught your trained hunting animals (to catch) in the manner directed to you by Allah: eat what they catch for you, but pronounce the name of Allah over it: and fear Allah; for Allah is swift in taking account. "
The hunting animals that the arabs used at the time were dogs; and Imam Malik maintain that this versed proved that food which has been in the mouth of dogs, ie in contact with their saliva is still pure enough for Muslims to eat.
Indeed, according to Maliki fiqh the water left in a container after a dog has drunk from it is still so pure that you can make wadhu with it!!!
it all depends on what school of thought u follow…so lets leave it at that.
