Ha, willow was a busy groomer too, I think she did it to calm down and make herself feel comfortable. I had to take away her sandbath in the end and just give it to her at playtime because she spent so much time in it she made her skin dry. It was all part of house-keeping for her and she would also do it out of boredom. One thing to check, does he only do it after playtime or a lot of the time as well? They can sometimes have parasites or itchy skin to watch out for.
