They itch because they have fleas... Or food Allergies, or didn't get all the shampoo rinsed out of their fur, or are allergic to mold, or are allergic to the feather pillows on your bed.

Why do dogs lick you so much?

Dog ususlly lick you because they love you and that is how they show affection Sometimes dogs will lick for affection, but only about 1% of the time. Usually if dogs love you, they will lick you under your chin or on your hands. If dogs lick you on your face, that means they think they are dominant, and they want to be in charge. If they lick your face, turn your back to them and stick your nose in the air. That way they know you don't want them to do that. And if they lick a little kid in the face because you let them do that to you, most likely the kid will get scared and cry... not a good scenario. So only let them lick your hands.
