What does it mean when a dog spins in circles
Bored
When a dog spins around its tail, it means it is bored. If the owner ignores the dog and lets it continue to circle, the dog will regard this behavior as a habit and the circle as a play behavior.
Parasite
The dog may have parasites in its ears or tail. Due to the influence of the parasites, the dog will circle around desperately to relieve its discomfort.
Distribute their own scent
Dogs circle in order to distribute and leave their own scent. For male dogs, this is a territorial behavior.
