THE OTHER PEOPLE ARE WEIRD ON HERE!!! LOL
Yes, you are right that there are some weird people here. How do I know?
I am one of those weird ones
Salt. I actually just licked my arm to see what it tasted like. It tasted good but, it did not taste like salt.
I am being very stern with her about this licking. She is smart. She is learning. She slips up once in a while but, that is okay. When I want her to lick me (like give me a kiss) I hold her up by my face and tell her it is okay go ahead and kiss. Then she will lick me. She is weird. She is not consistant. It isn't always in the same area but I find it cute.
When I feel that she needs to stop I tell her one word "ENOUGH". I don't yell it but say it very sternly. She is beginning to stop immediately then I tell her she is very good and pet her.
The only time she down right refuses to lick me (kiss me) is when I am leaving the house. She will turn her head away. She just will not do it. So, that tells me she doesn't want me to leave. But that is okay. I don't get mad at her for it. I even let her know that is okay but I will be back.
