Dogs can definitely sniff out kinds of dis-eases. Everything from cancer to covid. Scientists have documented this ability many times.
The science of sniffs: disease smelling dogs | Understanding Animal Research | Understanding Animal Research
For example, back in January, Archie started sniffing Vanya's kidney area. In April we found the internal symptoms of early kidney dis-ease.
Yesterday during an appointment, a client mentioned that her Border Collie Bodhi occasionally, and seemingly out of the blue, starts licking Daphne's (her other BC) ears.
He stops doing this when she gets a dose of her homeopathic medicine. Daphne has lots of symptoms, with seizures being the most prominent and problematic.
We're going to use the licking of the ears (trying to get at her brain?) as one of the indications for dosing.
I'll let everyone here know what happens.
Regardless, I think it's a good idea to always pay attention to unusual licking by dogs (cats too).
