My dog always goes into this weird routine of scratching the couch like crazy before lying down. Why does my dog scratch the couch before lying down—is this normal behavior?
Scratching the couch before lying down is mainly driven by a nesting instinct in dogs.
This behavior is similar to how wild ancestors would trample or dig in grass to create a comfortable sleeping spot.
It helps them adjust temperature, soften the surface, and achieve a safer resting position.
In addition, dogs have scent glands in their paw pads, so scratching can also leave their own scent behind, acting as a way of marking territory.
