She will try to lick you. She licks everybody who gives her attention. Except me. I taught her I don't like being licked. So now I can pet her, and boop her, and (if my sister isn't looking) give her small amounts of food. Znd she just snuggles up in my lap.

But she still tries to lick, and I say "heeey", and she goes "Oh, right. Sorry". And I go "it's ok." And then my sister comes over and is confused why she's so obsessed with me, or my mom, whenever we visit.

But I'm the only one she makes an actual effort not to lick.

Lick her back!

It won't change anything about her behavior, but it sure is fun

That's the top of the slippery slope that leads to consumption.

If you see a Republican trying to lick your dog, correct the behavior immediately, they've proven themselves not able to exhibit self control in those situations.
