Why would an older small breed dog become obsessive about hygiene?

I have no idea what behaviors you think are indicative a very human mental state, but guess it has something to do with licking/chewing?

Vet check time!

Get thee to a vet with a description of specific behaviors like:

If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

(4) Whatever your dog is doing.

Licking and chewing are what a dog does when something doesn’t feel right - it itches, it’s in pain, its swollen - or when they are very anxious - canine cognitive decline, loss of a sense like sight or hearing, generalized pain in some other part of the body.

(1) My dog has licked her back left foot raw and only that foot.

Has the current political environment caused Canadians to cancel trips to the United States?

(3) There is a small lump near my dog’s anus and he chews on it several times a day to the point that the fur is gone.

(2) My dog is licking her vagina whenever she is sitting or laying down but I haven’t noticed any discharge.
