They say that you can't teach an old dog new tricks but an old dog doesn't forget the tricks he/she has learned either. Molly is a little bit of a hoarder. She has always tried to bury her food where ever she thinks she has to. In couch cushions, in the bed, in her bed, it doesn't really matter. Whenever I shut her up in the bedroom she immediately goes into hoarding mode. She takes her food bowl and starts swatting it around with her paw. She eventually bats the bowl into the corner of my room, spilling out most of the food along the way. She then tries burying her food in the corner of my room using her nose. Whenever I come back home, there is food all over the floor and I have to pick it up.
Maybe she is afraid I am not coming back and she needs to save her food for a rainy day. Whatever the reason, I always come back to a big mess and one dog that is very happy to see me.
