Interesting!! Now it makes sense why all my yorkies always lick the inside of my nose (and well everyone in the family for that matter), but our chi hasnt tried. LOL.

We didn't even till him we had a Yorkie that does this all the time he guessed it was a terrier!
We also get this in the morning maybe they're checking we didn't disappear off somewhere in the night.
Our yorkie does this when we get home as well. Then she seems to think for a bit then does it some more so it seems true!  |
