Great information, again I have always thought dogs should not lick, they are not cats. The pee area, I can imagine it's just so tempting for them, but I correct it every time I see it. I knew of a woman that would walk a dog with a silver leg??? Why the silver... duct tape over bandaging, the dog was a neurotic licker and needed such a barrier to keep it from licking the leg down to the flesh I pick this when I see my boys lick or circle and pace around with no purpose.

By the way, thanks for the tip on the nails, Bubba i definitely due for a trim.
