We call this behavior hoarding, and it’s mostly seen with rodents but also with some larger mammals. Wolves, which are both closely and distantly related to dogs, are known to hoard food or toys and return to it later ( source).

Unboxing and Setup The best way to ‘explain’ to the dog why they shouldn’t be digging in the garden is by stopping them every time they start to dig. While dogs don’t understand words, they understand body language and tone of voice. They will understand what we mean if we give them a stop command. This toy is not just about distracting your dog from digging but also wearing them out with plenty of exercise! Not only does that provide extra boredom-busting mental stimulation around meal time but it’s also 30 minutes when your dog isn’t digging!Toy Variety: Provide a variety of digging toys with different textures, sizes, and features. This keeps your dog engaged and prevents boredom. The only downside of this is if your dog has too much fun and tears the fabric during intense use. Other than that, you have nothing to worry about! Everything is all set for your dog’s enjoyment. Overall, this i-Dig Digging Mat is suitable for dogs in all stages. Tough Seamz Rhino Yes, providing your dog with appropriate digging toys can help redirect their digging behavior away from your garden or yard.
