We all have our quirky bedtime rituals, but why do dogs scratch their beds before they lay down to sleep? If you're anything like most pet parents, it's a question you've found yourself asking on more than one occasion as you watch your pup dig and scratch their favorite sleep spot before they settle down for the night.
However, while all that scratching may seem destructive, it's perfectly natural. Also known as 'denning', dogs scratch for all sorts of reasons and it's usually nothing to worry about. That being said, if you've invested in one of the best dog beds and your pup seems intent on destroying it, we understand you being none too keen on this behavior.
