Dogs chase their tails for many reasons. Some dogs do it when they are bored or looking for something to do, while others do it when they are feeling playful. Some dogs may chase their tails when they have an itch or irritation on their hind end that they are trying to scratch. If you see this behaviour, you should first try to inspect the tail yourself and then consult a vet. A trained vet can look at the tail and figure out why your pup continues to attack it.
