Lexi's feet..
Lexi keeps licking her feet and drooling all over my couch. I'm getting really annoyed by it lol. Why do they lick their feet like that!!??
Re: Lexi's feet..
Sometimes it's allergies, though I think it depends on how much they are doing it. My yorkie/pom licks his paws every night just as we are laying down in bed. He's been doing it since 6 months old [he's 13 now], hasn't missed a night of a good foot cleaning. He even sometimes cleans my 'paws' for me...how thoughtful.
If she's doing it obsessively, and all the time...then you may want to look more into it.

Allergies are a primary reason. Sometimes it is stress. In a puppy however I think allergies are more the cause. If it is an allergen excessive licking could cause an infection.

I've also heard can be allergies to their food

After every walk, Loo cleans his paws. Maybe she is a very cleanly one, your Lexi!

A clean pup LOL - my Trooper won't even get on the couch - by the sounds of it - thank goodness! He likes the coolest floor he can find - leaves a wet spot there when licking done but not much to wipe up there
