Dogs will express their thoughts through licking. If they lick their owner's hand, it means that they like the taste of their owner, are close to their owners, and act coquettishly with their owners; dogs sometimes lick when they want something. The owner's hands are used to express needs; when the owner's hands have other smells, the dog will also judge and remember the smell by licking them.
