My Jack Russell, Candy, will lick places on the chaise in the living room. It is a sort of micro fiber suede-like material. I thought maybe it just felt good to her. I don't like getting wet spots on my furniture though! Especially because it sometimes leaves a ring where she has licked, if she soaks it enough. I am always cleaning on the chaise! If I cover it with a throw, she does not lick. I have been making her get down lately when she does it to see if that will break her habit. But I can't make her stay down for long. She has the most effective pout of all time. Usually when I go lay on the chaise to watch a movie, all three get up and snuggle with me. One on each side, and one right on top of me. I am not complaining though!
Except about the licking part.
