Can anyone tell me why my Black Lab licks cloth material. Is she missing some essential vitamin/mineral like couch fiber or pillow thread? She licks constantly. She sleeps in my room and all night I hear lick, lick, slurp. It kind of freaks me out, like nails on a chalk board type noise.

Perhaps you should try dog food? :)
My Golden does the same thing, but she licks the carpet or wood floor... drives me crazy!!! and I have no idea why or how to stop it.
All I am saying is that I have an 8 year old Lhasa Apso and does the same thing, all the time. It makes me nutso!
I'll give my opinion if you tell me where you bought all those clothes :)
I have a son who does the same thing!! He licks EVERYTHING:)

YOU CAN NOT POST ABOUT A DOG LICKING COUCH PILLOWS WHEN YOU HAVE AN OPEN GUESSING GAME GOING ON...there are Blog Rules in Blog-Land...and this is one of them!!!!
Okay, I guess I am going to have to be the "bigger" person here, since you are not telling about the clothes. You are a real stinker!
Your dog just has a nervous habit-it's sort of a neurotic thing. I had a dog who did the same. We actually put him on prozac because he licked so much that he started getting clogged with hair and would have to give him an,- well, I will stop right there. The prozac didn't work.
On a happier note, well not happy for me, but for you I guess, my other dog is leaving similar wet spots on the couch, only it's much worse. She has congestive heart failure, is on diuretics and is leaking from the other end. I have to order her a diaper today!
Ginny- I don't know whether to laugh or be afraid-very afraid!
Thanks for being "bigger" I'm glad we got that established up front. :)
LOL
