Help! Moe Licks a Lot ! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Pls help me understand Moe's licking:
a. his front paws - but I dont see sores or wounds
b. his pillow - such that it gets soggy
c. the floor or anywhere else - before he lays himself down

Maybe a nervous habit...IDK... I would suggest having your vet evaluate this behavior... maybe take some video for the vet to look at.

Before I had Sammy, I had a beagle named Benji. Benji would do the same thing and he would really get into it. I asked the vet and the vet said sometimes the dogs do that from boredom. So I would distract Benji whenever I could.
