How can I get my dog to stop licking everything in sight?

You may be able to discourage your dog from licking by providing alternative activities such as chew toys, puzzle feeders or interactive toys. You could also try spraying the object that your dog is licking with an unpleasant-smelling liquid like vinegar or rubbing alcohol. Additionally, you can try using a bitter spray on your own hands and then offer it to your pet so they don’t want to lick your skin. Finally, you can try redirecting your dog's attention to something else when they are about to lick something.
