Surely you have noticed this habit with your pet or other people's dogs. In the article we will tell you what licking is actually connected with.
Care
Dogs are sensitive to odors and take them very seriously. Having smelled something from a person’s feet (whether it be sweat or the aroma of soap), and considering that this could bring danger, the pet tries to quickly eliminate the problem with the help of licking.
Thus, the animal shows concern for the owner.
Show of affection
It turns out that licking the owner is a way for the dog to show his love. It is a way of establishing physical contact and communication.
Your dog may lick the face of family members when they play with him, or lick their feet or hands when he is relaxed around them.
A game
They bite when they play, or when they are excited or impatient. Some pets may bite on the hands or heels of their owners when playing with them, especially when they are excited or being chased. Herding breeds, and those with a stronger prey drive, can also playfully attack as part of their natural instinct.
