To get it comfortable and ready for a nap.

It is a natural instinct left over from the old days, when they would scratch out a den or bed to lie down in, in the wilds.

Could be fleas, dry skin, or an allergic reaction to something. Also, if you think about it, dog's bodies are covered with hair, the part of a human completely covered with hair is the head, the head is also the area most prone to itching.

Dogs like this because they can not reach that part of their body on their own. It feels really good to them. It is like someone scratching the one spot on your back that you cannot reach.

My cat does that! But a dog?! Gawd. It could be that that area is comfy to it's paws. But that's a guess.
