Although
thought by many to be a way of covering up their doings, it is actually
a way of further marking their territory after they pee or poop. Dogs
have scent glands in their paw pads and the act of kicking out their
back legs helps to mark their territory. This action is predominantly a
trait of intact males, but neutered males, and occasionally females,
will be seen doing this too.
