Why do Rotties lick? Well I'll tell you that Rotties arent the only breed that licks! I had a Maltese for eleven years and she was always licking: people, toys, the floor, her paws, etc. As for why...well, many reasons. If the dog is licking itself it could be a quick "cleaning", they could be itchy, it could be a nervous habit, they could have hot-spots, etc. I would see your vet if they are continually licking themselves, especially if the fur is falling out. If they are licking an object or floor it could be because of a lingering taste like food, boredom, play. If you are the one being licked it could be because you taste good ^_^ or the dog is licking the salt off your skin. Dogs also show submission by licking, so that could be it too.

What a stupid question!
