Eww Gross! I am hoping that someone can explain this behavior to me. Louie likes to lick the cat's behind. It grosses me out b/c then he wants to come and give me kisses! :sickie: Also when we go to my aunt's house he walks under the other dogs and licks their genitals. I understand the butt sniffing thing, but Is this a sign of submission or something. Is there some way that I can discourage this behavior?:confused: |
If dogs could talk, they probably would say that humans are olfactory disabled. Dogs can detect odors 1000 times better than humans. If there is chicken soup cooking on the stove, humans smell the soup, the combination of ingredients. Dog smell each individual part. So what is malodorous to humans can be glorious to dogs since they are able to pick out the certain odor and concentrate on that. Many dogs eat cat poop because of the undigested nutrients in it, they can smell the good part. So I believe it's possible to be a combination of submissive behavior, and he just plain likes it. You could always try the old pennies in a can trick. Say, "no" shake the can of pennies, repeat as needed. |
For the dog licking, I would think that would be mainly submissive behavior. Not sure about the cat tho. While I think it's most likely "normal" behavior for them, you can still teach good manners.... I mean manners that we humans consider good. ;) |
Or maybe he thinks their stinky and need to clean up their act.:D |

Look at it this way, atleast your cat's butt is always clean, I know sick humor, but what are you gonna do. |

We have 2 cats and 2 dogs and it usually looks like a couple choo-choo trains around here. The dogs' noses are firmly attached to the cats' butts :D . The dogs love the cat food and they will try to get it any way they can even if it means waiting for it to digest and grabbing a warm snack before it ever hits the ground (yes, that's another one of Remi's talents:rolleyes: ). As long as the pups don't stick their noses in MY butt, we will all get along;) . It won't hurt them unless the lickee has a tapeworm, then the licker can get it. At least they are easy to get rid of. |
roxyjosmom, a couple of choo choo train, oh my gosh that is toooooo funny. |
