Hvorfor sparker min hund til jorden med bagbenene?

Mange hundeejere er forundrede, når deres hunde-ledsagere river i jorden med bagbenene efter at have fjernet dem. Ofte antager de, at opførslen ligner en kat - at deres pooch forsøger at "dække" hans rod. Dette kan dog ikke være længere væk fra sandheden. Da handlingen med at eliminere sig selv er en af din hunds måder at markere hans territorium, så er fodens blanding der følger.


Foot scraping is a relic of dogs’ past, when their wild ancestors needed to mark off vast swaths of territory. Compared to humans’ 5 million scent glands, dogs have a whopping 125 to 300 million— meaning their sense of smell is magnitudes higher than our own. Dogs have glands in their feet that secrete pheromones—chemical signals that help animals communicate with each other— and a few backward scratches in the dirt releases those chemicals into the area and the noses of other hounds. This likely came in handy when our canines’ relatives needed to mark and protect territories too large to for them to patrol on a daily basis. Feces loses its scent once it dries out, after all, but the scent from dog’s feet lasts longer. This not only may have helped our canines’ ancestors protect valuable hunting grounds, but also guard fertile pack mates.
 
Hunders ridning af foden følger næsten altid afvikling eller vandladning, og det giver mening, når vi overvejer vores kæledyrs opførsel omkring ritualet: Hver ejer har tålmodig ventet, da hans hunde vælger det perfekte sted til at udføre sin pligt, når alt kommer til alt. At eliminere er kun en måde, din hund efterlader sin duft bag, og bagbenets skrabning er Fidos måde at fordoble sig på hans territoriale signaler. Fordi dette handler om at markere hans ejendom snarere end at hævde dominans, er hunde af begge køn og med en række temperamenter kendt for at deltage i fodskure.
 
Bagskrabning er en normal, ikke-destruktiv opførsel, så der er ingen grund til at prøve at ændre din hunds vane. Faktisk bør den eneste årsag til bekymring være, hvis dit kæledyr normalt skrubber fødderne og pludselig stopper. En adfærdsændring kan signalere, at noget hæmmer dit kæledyrs mobilitet og kan føre til mere alvorlige problemer ned ad vejen. Hvis din hundekammerat dog fortsætter med at fungere som normalt, skal din eneste bekymring vente på, at han stopper hans bagfods blanding, inden han opsamles efter ham - for ikke at få snavs eller noget meget værre sparket op i dit ansigt.

My dog does it after he urinates or defecate. I don't mind so much in our yard, but when I walk him he does it every time he stops and makes his territory. He just doesn't want to stop and can be pretty destructive. He is 8 yo and has only started it about a year ago.

OK, but what if my dog does this even if he’s not eliminating? And will sometimes do it on hard enough surfaces, and long enough, to sometimes make his feet bleed? Also, he sometimes does it on backwards circles. I took video of it and showed it to my vet, and he said he’s never seen behavior like that.
It’s almost like it obsessive; like he zones out and does it until you physically stop him, then he just snaps out of it. He was a rescue straight off the street, so I don’t know his history. I suspect he may have either been born with a brain defect, or sustained a head injury that brought it on.
Any ideas?

We have a little (pug x chihuahua?) rescue dog aged 11 months who scratches her hind feet on the floor when you talk to her or if another dog has a toy she wants - almost as a frustration release. She has neurological damage from untreated distemper as a pup which has left her hyperkinetic and I think is why she displays this unusual behaviour......

I love when my little Pomeranian does this! She does it when she is playing and getting Rowdy … she likes to do it when she wants something to like she wants to be the boss ! I love it so cute!

My shishon does this when she wants attention. That is the ONLY time she does this. She is tearing up my carpet because the force is so strong. But like I say the only time she does this is when I am on the computer, telephone or watching tv and she isn't getting attention, lol
