Have you ever noticed that your dog takes her paws and scratches at the surface of an area before lying down? She may scratch at the couch cushions, your bed, blankets, or even her own dog bed before finally lying down. This is usually because your dog is mimicking what she would do outdoors meaning should would dig at the ground or dirt and make a bed for herself. That’s right, she’s just making herself comfortable. No need to get on to your dog or discipline her for scratching at the furniture as she will stop on her own. However, if she does it a lot and starts to ruin your furniture or blankets then you may have to prevent her from sleeping there. Simply spray the area with a no-chew spray which will deter her from lying down there. For more tips, give your veterinarians Marietta GA a call.
