From a human’s perspective, our pet dogs do many weird and interesting things.
In fact, that was why we started this website. To explain to dog owners why their dogs behave in the ways they do.
Licking is one of these behaviors. Why do dogs lick anything, and why do they lick certain things in particular?
If these questions sound interesting, you are in the right place.
We have compiled a list below of articles our team has written about dog licking. So please feel free to take a look.
