I didn't read all the posts in this thread, but noticed that you (the OP) stated something about peanut butter being the possible cause of your dog's lip licking/smacking. I wanted to just point out that I gave Zoey peanut butter for the 1st time about 2 weeks ago and she's been licking her lips - sticking out her tongue A LOT ever since - it's gotten better and she's doing it less now, but was doing it quite a bit right after giving her peanut butter and for a week or more! I took her to the Vet and mentioned it earlier this week and the Vet said it's usually a sign of dehydration - but Zoey drinks and keeps very hydrated, so she said it could just be behavioral and/or a habit she is picking up. However after reading some of the post on this thread I'm thinking it could be the peanut butter for sure, since nothing else has changed with Zoey since that time that I can think of.. |
