Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do to keep her from doing this? Thanks.

Try decreasing the space in her dog box. I put a cement block in the box at any angle to take up more space. It maybe didn’t completely stop it but slowed the bad habit down. A little less hay/straw might help as well.

I have a female that will do the same, I was changing her bedding every couple days. I tried straw,hay,cedar chips, and pine. She still done it. I tried the thin padded mats you would use for a wire dog crate. I bought it at the farm store and put a cheap carpet rug on top of it, she hasn’t done it one time since. I know the mat/rugs alone wouldn’t be enough for her here in the winter She does have a heater in there and flap on her door. So if you have a way to keep her warm it’s worth a try.

Only way I have ever stopped it is similar to what Jeremy said, but will just put a rubber stall mat down cut to fit. You can try feeding in the box too. It’s a nasty habit. I despise it.
