are known to dig for a variety of
0:04
reasons one common cause is sheer
0:07
boredom when left alone for long periods
0:09
they might dig to entertain themselves
0:12
it's a bit like us turning on the
0:13
television when we're alone at home
0:16
another reason could be instinctual in
0:18
the wild dogs dig to hide food or to
0:20
create a cool spot to rest your German
0:23
Shepherd might be channeling there in a
0:25
wolf even in the comfort of your
0:27
backyard lastly they could be trying to
0:30
hide something a favorite toy maybe or
0:32
that treat they're saving for later so
0:34
if your German Shepherd is a digger it
0:37
might be time to increase their mental
