Our dog is constantly licking/kissing everything, is there something wrong with him?

Full Question:
Good Morning Ed,

We received our dog vest and all looks great ... thank you!

But, I did have a quick question regarding Maltese behavior. I was wondering if you know why, our 8 year old male Maltese who we adopted from a rescue 6 years ago, loves to lick (kiss). It doesn't matter if it's a pillow, blanket, a person's hand or foot, arm etc. he just loves to kiss. Can you attribute this behavior to anything?

Any insight would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
Rick
Cindy
Cindy Cindy's Answer:
Many times this becomes a chronic, neurotic and obsessive behavior. I think there are a few factors, one of which is vaccinosis. Licking objects, carpeting and people all the time is not normal dog behavior and in my opinion is a symptom of vaccine damage. Coming from a rescue I will wager your dog was vaccinated heavily before you adopted him.

Some dogs even lick the air or themselves to the point of mutilation.

The only thing I can suggest is to consult with a homeopath.

For information on vaccinations and the problems they cause please read our vaccinosis article.

I would also recommend these 2 books, Shock to the System and Vaccine Guide for Dogs & Cats.
