Tail chasing
The dog stares at its tail, grabs it with its teeth and
nips or bites it, then chases it, spinning in a circle,
with or without vocalizations.

al., 1992; Pageat, 1998; Beerda et al., 1999: Shilder,

The owners of the female German Shepherd are out of
sight. The dog stares toward the exit, backs away, licks
her flews and chases her tail.
She walks around and looks at the person, stretches her
muzzle toward their hands and chases
her tail, trying to grab it.
