Licking... - Page 3

beagletails · 03-22-2008, 01:49 AM

We have taught Sam NOT to lick us at all, however I do find that for some reason lately he is licking the living room furniture. That may be due to the fact that I recently started caring for infants in my home and of course there are little bottle drips, spit ups, etc... that I may not clean off as good as I could.

Maya, on the other hand, just won't stop. No matter how hard we try to teach her not to lick us she just can't seem to keep that tongue in her mouth. My daughter has resorted to putting Tabasco on her chin and letting Maya lick it once to discourage the face licking. It seems to be working for her, but I won't do that so she still tries to lick me whenever she can.

Tate is like Sam. Neither of them have ever really had any desire to lick us.

It's weird that they say licking is a submissive gesture because our boys, Sam and Tate are both very submissive, while Maya and her retractable tongue is the one always trying to show dominance. Strange.

Bloom's not a licker at all. And I'm glad she isn't.
If she were, I would have probably thought her not to lick anymore. I thing that's gross...I mean she is licking her butt! Eewww

Licking is usually submissive but because's she the only girl Maya might feel like she has to claim you...he he, that's my MOM!

Vinny will get in my wifes lap every night and try to lick her neck because he likes the smell of the soap she uses at night. And anytime I come back from the gym Vince will try to get his licks in on me before I hit the shower.

What oddballs these beags of ours are
