Younger dogs out of subservience may groom or lick higher-ranked dogs, so it's probably nothing more than a sign of deference to the older dog. However, if the licking is obsessive, or regular, or if the younger dog shows other odd behaviors like obsessive behaviors, insecurity, etc., then you might have some version of an eating disorder called pica or something along those lines--talk to your vet about it.

∙ 15y agoThat's a very odd and inappropriate behavior. It could be that the younger dog pees when he gets excited or nervous, or it could be that he means to mark the older dog as "his property" or something. The only way is to get a dog trainer or your vet involved to understand the context and symptoms to then decide on a course of action to correct the problem.
