Dog Circles

Ok, so I recently got a used dog.  I say that meaning I got her from the pound.  She is an eight year old pug, and really is quite a nice dog.  She is loving and cute, really good with the kids, and in a short amount of time has become a member of the family.

That being said she does one thing that really makes me question her state of mind.  When I take her for walks (seemingly I am the only one in the family able to do this), she makes circles before she potties.  Now when I say she makes circles, I don't mean to say she goes around once or twice then pees, or poos.  I mean she will make a dozen or more circles.  I don't know for sure what the most she's done is, but I know that the highest number I've counted her doing is 35.  THIRTY FIVE!!!  That's insane.

I would swear that when she gets over 20 or so, she starts to get dizzy.  She is old for a pug, and her back legs aren't the strongest in the world.  So it's really funny to see her dizzy.  Her back side gets even wobblier than normal.  I'd say its a good thing she has to stop for 30 seconds or so to let her re-acclimate to the world not moving.

Anyone else have a dog that circles like that?  I've never seen it before and I think is bonkers.
