My Shiz tzu also licks like crazy! He is an amazing puppy but the licking is getting bad. I don't know if it is a nervous thing or if he has a salt deficiency.
My 1 Yr. Old Shih Tzu Is Constantly Licking "Me" Or Anyone . She Wants To Lick Hands, Legs, Feet, Neck And Face If Allowed. Why Is She So Constantly Licking Something Almost All Of The Time Or Every Chance She Gets?
My cat does it,the dog obviously loves you and trying to show affection or it could like the taste of your skin maybe salty.
You are not alone. My 10 month old Shih Tzu loves to lick everyone, but especially us. I think it is a mixture of salt and just plain adoration!! :-) She happens to love almost everyone she meets.
