Nibbling corgi

My corgi loves to nibble. Whenever he comes onto the bed, he nibbles the covers, whenever I have his toy while playing, he nibbles my clothing (only my clothes) and will not stop for a while even if I offer him the toy. Whenever I play 'keep away', he goes to nibble more vulnerable areas like my sides and stomach.
Does yours do this, and why? I need to know why!

um I don't have this issue but I have a cat that wool sucks as people refer to it he'll chew little holes in certain types of material....but when he was young I researched it and if I remember right it's been almost 8-9 years now it's kinda like a compulsive disorder. when he does this his brain releases dopamine which we all know is the feel good chemical so he would do it to make himself feel better kinda like kitty self medication.....your corgi prob. is doing this behavior for the same reasons. I beleive most obsesive behaviors all lead back to this simple feels good self medicating equation....just like drug addicts or alcoholics that just can't stop, no matter the cost on the human side of things...or I could be completly wrong here to.
