Ten Dog Mysteries Solved

Dog Article courtesy of I-Love-Dogs.com

Sometimes a dog's behavior and actions can leave us completely baffled. This is
especially true for new dog owners. So, here is a little guide to help you figure out
why your dog might be doing the weird things that he does.

1. Why does my dog keep eating the cat's poop out of the litter box?
While this particular dog behavior seems to be among the most bizarre, there
really is a simple explanation for it. Your cat's diet consists mostly of protein, so his
stool has a high protein content as well. Many dogs simply crave the protein
located there. Try using a litter box with a cover or one that automatically scoops
litter after each use.

2. Why does my dog try to eat pantyhose and socks?
Most likely, your dog starts chewing these items from boredom, frustration or
anxiety. Then, once the chewing starts, his natural instinct is to continue the
process by swallowing the object. In other words, it might just be a mistake. Once
you know which clothing items of yours are your dog's favorites, keep those and
similar items tucked away in a drawer.

3. Why does my dog love to chew up my shoes?
Your dog chews your shoes up for one of two reasons: your dog is a puppy who is
teething or he just loves the attention that such an act brings. If you have a
teething puppy on your hands, provide him with some appropriate alternatives in
the form of store-bought chew toys. If your dog is an adult, try not to react by
chasing him around or making a big scene. This is exactly what your dog wants
(your attention) and doing so will simply reinforce the behavior. Keep your shoes
in a safe place and give your dog more of the good attention that he obviously
craves.

4. Why does my dog like to dig holes in my yard?
Digging is an instinctual act for dogs, especially among certain breeds. The dog
could also be trying to bury something or could simply be trying to reach the
cooler soil beneath. If you determine that your dog is simply digging for no
apparent reason, you can train him to dig in a designated spot in your yard
instead of all over. Do this by spraying protected areas with a non-toxic dog
repellant.
