Ok. Took my dog, Hal, to the local dog park today.
An hour or so after we showed up, a 7-month-old little Pug walked up to my dog, sniffed him, stuck his [Pug’s] head under my dog’s body and began licking my dog’s penis incessantly.
The Pug’s family separated him from my dog. The Pug didn’t lick any other penis during the whole trip to the dog park.
When the Pug wound up back on the side of the park we were on, he once again began licking my dog.
My dog is approximately 3 years old, and has been fixed since he was 2.
The other dog was a male 7-month-old Pug, not fixed. He appeared to become physically excited when he was around Hal. When the Pug’s family prevented him from coming in contact with Hal, he whined and otherwise behaved as if he was upset. The Pug was highly persistent, and this behavior probably popped up in excess of two dozen times.
I’ll note that my dog (briefly) started humping a girl dog at the park right at the beginning of this trip. This girl had apparently only come out of heat last week.
So, any idea why my dog was getting licked so much?
Been leaving the meat out on the counter unattended? If so, I wouldn’t eat it now, were I you.
Ever see the movie Scent of a Woman? A bitch recently in estrus smells goooood to male dogs. A drop of her vaginal secretions can attract male dogs from blocks away.

Are you expressing that my dog was getting attention from his little Pug friend due to his lingering dog cootch odors?
Yep. At my office I have seen intact male dogs lick (with wild lust) an area of the floor where an in-heat bitch was previously sitting.

Thank you for your wholly satisfactory answer. Cheers!
I do this same thing in bars.
One afternoon, little Susie wanted to take her dog, Lady, for a walk. She went to ask permission of her father, who was in the garage working on his car. Upon hearing Susie’s request, Susie’s father, who knew that Lady was in heat, came up with idea of masking Lady’s smell with a smudge of gas from a nearby rag. He wiped the gasoline-covered rag on Lady’s furry behind, and Susie and Lady took off down the street. A few minutes later, however, Susie came back without Lady. “Where’s Lady?” her father asked. Susie replied: “Lady ran out of gas about halfway around the block, but it's okay; very nice boy dog is pushing her home.”
