Kiss2 so do we know WHY THEY LICK?

It seems everyone's yorkie is quite the licker ... mine too!

Her routine is to lick any skin she can (typically outstretched legs) for 10 minutes, then she settles in to sleep. I know playtime is over when she starts the licking & soon enough she'll nap.

But do we know WHY they lick obsessively?

Also, I want to be sure that this is not a sign that they think they are the pack leaders ... that even though they are licking us (grooming us like their mama's groomed them), they realize we're in charge?

I could be over-thinking this ... But I'm curious! Anyone know?
