No, most people wear shoes when they're running from law enforcement or lost in the woods and that would keep their foot sweat contained. Dogs track several things. The strongest scent comes from crushed vegetation and disturbed earth. The actual scent of the person comes off in dead skin cells and chemicals released from the skin. Even dressed head to toe in winter gear a person still gives off enough scent for a dog to track them.

Why would a dog constantly lick the sweat off your body?

One of the reasons is that to them you smell different and sometimes they think there is something wrong with you. Thus they try to cover the smell of your sweat with there own scent. Another reason is just because they like the taste of the salt in our sweat. =)
