This might work. When the dog licks, then make a high pitched yelp, like a puppy. Don't scream, just a sharp yelp! The dog should stop and look startled... Pet him, praise him, and give him a small treat. Keep doing this, and he may stop in a week or so.If he is really bad about it, you might yelp, and if he continues to lick, then leave the area. He will learn that licking means leaving...

Teach the dog the "leave it" command. If you do not know how then you need to start at the beginning and enroll yourself and the dog into a good obedience class. This will teach you about dog behavior and how to teach your dog plus it will give you the tools to correct behavior problems.

You might try putting vinager on your feet, or keep a spray bottle with a solution of 2 part vinager one part water and consistantly when your dog licks your feet spray him/her and say NO! in a harsh tone.. this will teach him/her that it is not ok and associte the taste of the spray bottle with licking your feet.
