"Dog behavior" joke

Dear Dr. Science,
Why do male dogs furiously kick up grass and dirt with their hind legs after using the bathroom?
- Keith Henry, Sylva, NC
They're angry that they don't have access to a real bathroom and they're showing their displeasure. Not that dogs enjoy bathing, no, they just want to have a chance to sit on the porcelain throne and read the morning paper the way the rest of us do.
There are many other things that dogs are angry about and a myriad of ways in which they vent these negative feelings.
Biting the mailman is a common one. So is chewing shoes and making toll calls to the psychic hotline when no one else is at home.
An unsupervised dog is an accident waiting to happen.
