The Licked Hand, Also known as The Doggy Lick or Humans Can Lick Too, is an urban legend. It has several versions, and has been found in print as early as February 1982.

In variations of the story, a young girl or a nearsighted woman is left alone and is scared of a local killer. Her only companion is a pet dog, and she feels reassured during the night when the dog seemingly licks her hand. At some point, she discovers that the dog has either been killed or was never in the house with her. The one who was licking her hand was the killer.
