TikTok screenshot of a dog photo with caption "I just yelled at Ralph for licking his paws and he responded “Raise your words not your voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.” Underneath is a comment saying “Ralph sold me a years supply of fentanyl.”

      They probably meant compulsive licking, it can be because of allergies or anxiety and it can make their paws raw and sore. Sometimes after you treat the allergies dogs will still do it out of habit. Not sure what the backstory is in the OP but it’s a pretty normal problem.

      I’m glad they can talk though. If the OP implied they couldn’t I might think they made it up as a joke.
