The best way to get a dog to stop licking your lit The best way to get a dog to stop licking your little one is to give them something else to do instead. Try one of these:
- Ask your dog to go to their bed 
- Throw a treat in the opposite direction 
- Ask them to fetch their favourite toy

Really, anything that puts some space between dog and baby will do it. 
I don't mind dogs licking me in general but not the kids! How do you feel about your dog licking you? What about little ones? Let me know ⬇️
