Why does my dog run around wildly after pooping? Is it normal?

Question

Why do some dogs run or leap away from their feces after (sometime while still) dedicating? Is it excitement? Satisfaction? A mystery? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | 4 years and 6 months old | 68 lbs

It is definitely a mystery. Dog behavior is not totally understood, but it does seem that some dogs are more fastidiously cleaner than others. As long as everything else is normal, a little quirk here & there is what makes life so interesting! take care.
