Licking Everything in Sight....

Is this just something my corgis do? Everywhere they lie down they lick! When they sit in my lap they lick my leg. When they lay on the bed they lick the sheets. When they lie on the ground they lick that!!!! And not just one place. I'll find 4-5 tightly grouped wet spots on the couch where they have been licking! Is this normal or are my dogs really wierd? I can't think of a single way to make them stop because there is no possible way to catch them every time.

My Camber has been into l icking things as well...this is a fairly new phenomenon with her. She'll lick my ankle, my calf, the leather sofa, and the floor of the bathroom by the tub. I've read that licking a person is usually a sign of affection-that you're one of the "pack"-and grooming each other is what pack dogs do. Also, they will lick you (or whatever) if it smells right to them; soap, lotion, whatever. Hope this helps!
