I should have named him LICKSTER :( Hello ALL!!! :) My baby boy Jaxon is a LICKER.... when i say he licks EVERYTING all the time, I am not kidding. Sure dogs lick and some lick often but Jaxon is a different case. I times him today, he licked my arm for 7 minutes and 15 seconds!! He only stopped because I moved away! He licks the kitchen floor (obvious reasons), the dresser, body parts, himself, potty pads, sofas NONSTOP! At first I thought he was thirsty but his little nose is always wet, then I thought he may just like the saltiness of the skin, but that doesnt explain his licking of objects. I googled it (which I probably shouldn't have) and ppl said he may have neurological issues :( He's licking me right now! Has anyone experienced this licking addiction? |
I have the same problem, with my boomer, a few nites ago we went bye bye to pick up my daughter after a ball game. He started licking me the seats the console anything he could and he is still doing it, I thought the same thing he must be thirsty, but his bowl is always filled, and his nose is wet also. It has been such a big problem for my husband, it irritates him, so I guess I am going to have to take him to the vet. If I find anything out I'll let you know. :aimeeyork:heart toSheila:heart to:aimeeyork |
My Cali has it. She licks the carpet, bedspread etc. Can drive you crazy after awhile. |
Bentley does this too, but only when hes tired or just wakes up. Its kinda cute actually. i think its a comfort thing cause he presses and "kneads" my arm or the blanket with his paws like a cat does. after a while the licking of my arm gets annoying but ill usually just give him a different part of my arm to lick cause it feels weird when he licks the same spot for too long hehehe |
My Gracie is like that and my mom has her brother and he's the same way. |
My Jewels is a crazy licker too |
My Suzi loves to lick people all the time! Problem is not everybody like puppy kissess! I personlly do not think their is anything wrong with it. But, I sometimes don't want to be licked in the face . LOL . :aimeeyork |
LOL, nobody ever has the solution to this but at least we know we're not alone.:D |

She licks the floor,a table arm,my face, my arm..everything. Almost like she wants to make sure its not food that she can eat. LOL :D |
You need to determine between your dog just licking every once in a while to be friendly or obsessive licking where it is just a compulsive behavior like thumb sucking in a child If you think it might be compulsive it's usually because they aren't stimulated enough and the licking is a way for them to calm themselves try to get him tuckered out go for long walks take him to the dog park play fetch and see if the licking diminishes |
