Story Name: Desmond Loves Licking Rocks
From: Bruce Ramos
My Jack Russell Story:
I have a 2 1/2 year old JRT and his name is Desmond. He has one very weird habit and I'm having a hard time finding another JRT with the same habit. Desmond loves to lick rocks. Once he finds a rock he likes, he sticks with it. When I say he licks rocks you can't begin to imagine what I mean. I mean he licks them until they are covered with foam. He continues to lick until his front legs are soaking wet. While he licks rocks his breathing becomes hyper and he looses track of where he is. It's like he has achieved nirvana while licking the rock. I should point out that he is fixed and he never bites or chews the rocks of his life, he just slowly licks them for up to 3 or 4 hours at a sitting.
Does anybody have a dog with similar traits / habits?
