The dog's a nut case

Tana is a bed/sheet licker too. When we adopted her we drove 8 hours to pick her up from her foster home and spent the night in a motel on the way home. She did the exact same thing….sat on the bed and obsessively licked the sheets & bedspread wherever she happened to be. I thought it might have been a stress reaction (she was very fearful and stressed out when we first adopted her) but she continued to do the same thing on occasion even after she got used to being in our truck. We've had her going on 4 years now and she rarely does it but ONCE in a while she does it in our own bed even :)

Sayblee and Arwen always did the insane rear up and rub our hair after a shower, contorting and twisting their bodies to get the wet off us or on them, I don't know which.
But Cara is the bed licker. It used to gross me out but she doesn't make it wet or fixate on one place. BUT she also flea bites my bed a LOT, especially when Leora is holding her or she is trying to body meld with Leora– because Leora won't let her play bite her. It is simply frustration. Sometimes when she gets frustrated with me she walks around the bed flea biting as she goes.

Yeah what is up with the little nibble biting? She does that to my husbands arms!!

Anubis does the same thing! He will lick my blankets, pillow and my couch. Ive even caught him licking the carpet once or twice. It's weird.

Belinda - I think we all become Basenji speaking psychiatrists in the end!

**Both my B's do/did that to the little rug I stand on when I get out of the shower to dry off. When dad steps off, they roll on. :eek:
The other time they do that is if I spray Fabreeze or Glade in a room. They'll run in and start rollin all in it as it settels. :rolleyes:
They start gettin all excited when I pull the can out of the cabnet…:p**

@AJs:
We've been in this motel room for about a week and a half. We've been in motels before and I have never seen this dog do the following:
He licks the bedspread.
At first, I thought "Eeewwww" like some of you are, but he's not going back to the same spot. Where ever he happens to be lying or sitting, he starts to lick the bedspread and will sometimes continue until I stop him. So I believe my dog is a little loopy.
Anyone know a good psychiatrist who speaks Basenji?
Check the bed spread with a black light, there is probably disgusting human residue on it. The grosser it is the more they love it.
-
eeeeeeeew. My dogs do like to lick my legs and when I get out of the shower…but I'm not sure that I could stomach watching them like a motel bedspread :-/
-
yuck…but so understandable..mine are the same, well they have never been in a hotel room, but licking yucky stuff..
Silly AJ :) -
Jaycee not so bad but Jayden look out socks if they are my son's or my daughter's boyfriends socks Jayden will roll on your feet to get to the socks.
