Why does a dog lick the wall?
Licking walls may come from lacking micronutrients causing pica, leading to licking or chewing foreign objects; internal parasites or digestive issues and restlessness can also cause it.
The dog was fine one day, then the next morning vomited the previous day’s food and became lethargic; first food, then white water, and whimpering at night.
