Mine now are in pens, so they dont have that option. But had a Rot when i was lil, and when we would throw her scraps....after she got full she would walk off to the back yard with it and then come back to the front door waiting on more. I got curious to what she was doin, and watched out the back window (cuz if you were outside watching her she wouldnt do it). But, if she thought nobody was watchin, she'd go burry it in the back yard. I remember getting a big kick out of it, cuz thats what them cartoon dogs did with their bones
