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

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

(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.

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

What explanations do flat earthers have for the shape of our planet? If they do not have any, why should their opinions on this topic be considered credible?

Vet check time!

(4) Whatever your dog is doing.

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

What are the consequences of being addicted to something? Is it considered wrong to have an addiction?

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?

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.
