That's not affection, that's called tasting your prey to see if they need more seasoning. What you didn't see after this, is scratch going to the kitchen and returning with a bottle of seasoning salt.
Its not dominance, its familiarity- grooming shows affection and well-being, (cats that aren't groomed are in serious psychological distress). Grooming another cat, (or lesser critter, like people), shows affection & affiliation- likewise, when you pet a cat, its like you're licking them.
I love how it immediately pacifies the dog. Its all part of his plan for world domination, naturally.

I love how Scratch saw that he was on camera, with proof of Doggie Love, and then bolted! "OH SNAP!! IZ BEEN CAUGHT!"

Actually, from what I've heard and read, licking and grooming like that is a show of dominance.

Don't be fooled. He's just trying to lower the puppy's defenses and then...STRIKE!

I think he's just tasting him, but then decides, the dog is not edible. :)

Haha, I like how Scratch tries to play it off when he realizes someone's recording it.
