Tucker licks faces, necks, , and toes; chews on objects, but doesn't lick. I think of the licks as kisses. In fact, if I hold him up, and he doesn't lick my face, I say "kiss, kiss", and he starts licking. I warn visitors that he is a licker, and not to pick him up if they don't like "dog kisses". Most don't care. I also have to warn them if they are wearing shoes that tie. He will untie the laces. Am I wrong to encourage the "kisses"? He's my first Yorkie, and I admit,licks faces more than any other dog I've ever had.
