| Help! He wont stop licking! Its so annoying! Everytime someone trys to pet him or he even just walks buy you he licks and licks and licks you!! He's just started doing this and I dont know how to teach him to stop! He never done this until about 2 weeks ago! Is there any hope in him stopping?

| Tucker does this all the time, we call him the lick monster. Lexie only licks when she's excited so we aren't quite used to it yet, but I see no signs of it stopping. I hope you get some good feedback! |

| There are sprays that you can get that taste bad to dogs, or even just lemon juice, if you can train him not to lick you then he should learn that it's not pleasant to lick others. Rub whichever solution you prefer on your hands, face, wherever he likes to lick, it will soon discourage him and should put him off licking altogether. Let me know how it goes, good luck, Lisa and Rufus Last edited by rufus; 03-20-2008 at 03:12 PM. Reason: typo! |

| Licks Bella is a licker also, she licks our eye lids, our ears, and lips. My husband loves it and if you say thank you Bella for the kisses she will keep coming back. |

| Ewwww Sadie is doing this too... I let her give a kiss or two and then I say: no more... I stop her. Other wise it seems like an obsession. eyebrow2:

My little Shadow Donating YT Member | Bella does this too. So sweet, but a little strange..... Just before she goes to sleep, she cuddles close to me and licks my neck, or the crease of my elbow, or my hand. It's almost as if it's bonding like with her Mommy while nursing. Then her little head drops....all is quiet...& she falls off to sleep. awwwwww so Precious!

| I have TWO that are major "Lickum-miesters". Seymour is the one that is most obsessed with it. If I am on the couch, he will push my pant leg up to get to my ankles!!! Do you REALLY think it is a sign of affection? or is it a "mimmick" they do from their "puppyhood"? Just curious.........

| I think Chip is OCD because he licks so much. He HAS to lick my feet and/or hands for about 10 minutes before he'll go to sleep at night. Smokey on the other hand licks the air, licks the blankets, licks our faces, licks our clothes, licks the carpet... everything. I think it's a dog thing...

| Both of mine like to lick...Mojo just turned 5 years and LilyGrace just turned 3 years. Sometimes, it is non stop...but if we tell them to stop, they will...but we let it go for a while! I don't mind it at all...I love doggy kisses.....they instantly relieves my stress and makes me feel sooo much better!

| Yeah our female is a big licker, and everyone that comes over loves it. The male on the other hand hardly licks at all. The female will give kisses when you say "kisses", or if friends come over she will lick to greet them and sometimes she won't stop. I like it, its like a little affection. Beckham our male will just curl up next to us or in extreme cases lay on faces. I guess thats his way of saying he loves us. |
