Licking everything
My staffy is always licking doesn't matter if it is on a person or wood floors, leather lounge suite, pillows, doona covers, I am wondering if this is normal she will stop when told too but a couple of min she will start again.

Re: Licking everything
Hmm not something I've experienced. It doesn't seem quiet right, hopefully someone will be along with some advice later so do check back here.
In the meantime, when you get a min pop along here and say Hi:-

Re: Licking everything
From my experience, I'd say it's habit/boredom.
Is your dog getting enough exercise or play to tire them out?
Zeus used to do this a fair bit when he was younger, key thing was to tire him out and also if it was excessive licking, to either distract him with something else to focus on, or to tell him off.
