The behavior of our pets can be either completely unpredictable or simply funny.
For example, dog owners often notice that their animals like to chase their tails.
Let's figure out what motivates your dog to do this.
Why does a dog chase its tail?
The most likely reason is that the dog is simply bored and is trying to entertain itself in this way. This behavior is typical primarily for small puppies, who see an incomprehensible object with their peripheral vision and try to catch it.
If the tail-chasing starts to happen more and more often, then things may not be so harmless.
It is possible that the tail chasing is caused by pain in the tail due to some disease. Mental illnesses in the animal are also possible.
Another reason is an attempt to get rid of parasites. In this case, chasing the tail is accompanied by scratching and biting, it is quite possible that she has fleas.
