Understanding Some Weird Dog Behaviors

Dogs tend to display certain behaviors that can be bewildering or surprising to many pet owners. Here are some of them:

Scratching the ground after doing their business

Scratching the ground with their hind legs enable dogs to leave a visual and olfactory sensory marker for other dogs that may pass by the area. Scent glands are present on the dog’s paws and scratching the dirt enables them to leave their signature scent.

Circling before lying down

Experts have forwarded several theories in an attempt to explain why dogs go around in circles before lying down. One, it may be a dog’s way of trying to get a position that offers the best view of the room or his surroundings. Second, it could also be that the dog is looking for a spot where he can easily keep an eye on what’s going on in his surroundings before sleeping.
