| Hercules is a licker too. Maybe it's because they are still young. I don't know though. But I can tell you that Hercules licks my boyfriend different than he licks me. My boyfriend lets him mall him. I say that he's making out w/ him. It's a little gross but funny too! He'll put both of his paws on top of his face and go at it. Well he isn't usually quite that intense with me. Maybe because he can tell that I don't like it quite as much. He'll lick a little and then move on. |

| What is is with the ears? They must like the taste of ear wax! Higgins tongue practically reaches my brain through my ear canal! Guess I'm brainwashed by the Yorkie! I think I have the cleanest ears on the whole Ease Coast! Higgins plays ROUGH with Don because Don encourages it. I wish Don wouldn't play rough with him. But they LOVE going at each other.....sigh. Then the two of 'em cuddle like crazy. Higgins licks Don's hands, but not his face -- Don has a beard. Higgins is a perfect gentleman with me, though. NEVER chews on my hands or is rough in any way. And he is a perfect gentleman with everyone else, too, thank heavens. They just KNOW who is who and who will let them be "boys." |

| Otis will lie there and lick the air for as long as 10 minutes. We don't understand why he does that. It bugs the crap out of me because all you haer is "smack, lick, smack, smack" for about 10 minutes before he finally decides to settle down and sleep. What is wrong with him? Does anyone else's Yorkie do that? |

| junebug, i know its not funny to you, but i did have a little chuckel reading that your dog licks the air for about 10 mins, it almost sounds like when a dog licks when you blow in its face..... the only thing is yours doesnt have any air being blown in his face... maybe just a habbit, but who knows.... |

| Penny licks all the time...me, "dad", chair, pillow, it doesn't matter what, she's always been a licker! I don't mind it for a little while but it gets to be old pretty quick. We've always wondered why she likes to lick so much. Does anybody know why yorkies do this? |

| My girls are lickers too maybe it is a Yorkie thing but I have tried to calm them down with the licking but it is not working they see no stangers when someone comes to the house it takes them about 10 mins and they are fine. They even followed one of my friends into the bathroom.But the look on a yorkies face is the cutest thing I cant get mad at them Lilli is the one that knows how to get her way!!!Kristi |

| Yup, I got a licker in Yoda, he'll lick all over my face and skin. It's actually a bit hard to get him to stop, but he only licks Mommy and Daddy and not gross strangers. |
