| Bailey's the same. Especially if she has started to bite and we tell her "no bite," she'll start licking as if her life depended on it. I seem to remember reading that it is not only submissive behavior, but social behavior - grooming, etc. We're trying to teach Bailey the command "enough" when we're tired of it (don't want to say "no" because most of the time we love it), and she seems to be getting it - but she's a little slow to respond. |

| My boys lick lips.. they will lick your lips for an hour if you let them. I don't know why lips, but its the first place they go for. One of my guys will lick my arm for an hour until I get sick of it, but the other one is not so much a licker. Feet too! LOL they are crazy lickers! |

| Sadie licks all the time. But her favorite time is to lick my feet when I get out of the shower. She knows the difference in the sound of the shower and the sound of the water coming out of the tub faucet and when she hears it stop coming out of the shower head she runs over to the tub and stands there so patiently. As soon as I get out of the shower, she has to do the "taste test" to see if I'm clean!
