My 1 yr old Bloodhound Duke is quite a licker!!! He will go out of his way to lick you, he will even lick your clothes. He has to have his face in yours all the time! even if he is sitting with his back to you he will flip his head backwards and start licking! It is quite funny, untill he goes and drinks and then comes back for more licks!! hubby say he uses us as his napkin!! If you dont know, Bloodhounds slobber, horribly!! so it can drive people nuts! I usually have to put him outside when company coms over because he just drives everyoone insane! He is also one of those dogs that has to be by your side at all times. I was wondering if anyone else has this problem, and why he might be doing this??
