Sided Dog

Why does my Maltese dog scratch the side of his food bowl?

When my Maltese dog gets ready to eat, he scratches/paws at his food bowl with his paw before he eats. He does this to the side of his bowl about five times with his paw….like he’s playing with his food bowl or something; then he eats. Why does he do this? Thanks.

There may be something wrong with the food bowl. It may be the wrong shape or too shiny. Or it may be on a shiny surface that a light is reflecting, and he is moving it to clear out the reflection from the overhead light. With animals, you always have to get down to their perspective and examine what they’re dealing with to see what it could be. It’s usually something sensory – something they are seeing (reflected light and certain colors are a big problem for cows), hearing (a vibration, a high or low pitched noise), feeling (a warm or cold air current), or smelling (an odor that wafts in from somewhere). Sometimes it is because it is near something they don’t like – something that is jarring in some sensory way. I got this stuff from a book called “Animals in Translation”, but it is not for sensitive readers, because it’s about the animal slaughtering business, mainly cows, and the things that spook them in their pens and at their feed, etc.
