They could be trying to dig an escape. Try not to punish your dog after you find out that they were digging, as it will make it worse because your dog might dig an even bigger hole in an attempt to escape, out of fear or anxiety! What you can do is follow this trick: If you notice that your dog digs a hole in the same zone, burry bricks there to stop it from digging further. And if your dog is moving to a no-digging zone, say “no” firmly every time they do. Once they stop digging, give them treats and make sure they don’t just dig another hole to hide the treats!
