If you have ever had or currently have a puppy, then you know they are quite fond of their tails. Sometimes puppies even chase them around in circles like a little tornado. This is normal behavior for young dogs and even older ones. There are a few reasons why dogs like to chase their tails, both good and bad. One reason dogs chase their tails is that they are bored. If they are left alone at home all day, chasing their tail lets them play with themselves. Also, dogs may chase their tails simply because they are playful.
如果你曾經養過或現在有一隻小狗，那麼你就會知道牠們非常喜歡自己的尾巴。甚至有時小狗像小型龍捲風一樣追著它們轉圈圈。這是幼犬乃至成犬的正常行為。狗喜歡追尾巴的原因有好有壞。狗狗追尾巴的原因之一是牠們覺得無聊。如果牠們整天獨自待在家裡，追尾巴讓牠們可以跟自己玩。此外，狗狗可能只是因為好玩而追逐牠們的尾巴。
