This could be caused by a number of things, for example diseases of the muscles of the hind limbs (myopathies) or nerves that supply the muscles (neuropathies) or even diseases associated with certain parts of the dog's brain. Your vet would need to do a thorough examination of the dog to determine the cause of the problem.

In the wild, a dog lives in a pack and will cover its poop. That is what a dog is doing when it kicks its legs after pooping, although it may not make as much of an effort at it when it is living with a human family. In the wild, the poop if left uncovered can lead predators to the dog.

Can a male dog lose the use of his back legs after breeding the tie?
I am assuming that it looked like he did lose the use of his back legs when he was tied. He is not really losing the use of them but what happens is, if the female is a little taller than him his legs may be just off the ground while the dogs are tied. Sometimes they are standing on their tippy toes. You can help to make him a little more comfortable by placing a rolled up mat or towel under his feet.

How many legs does a horse?
Horses only have four legs... so if you meant to ask "why do horses have four legs" then the answer would be that four legs fit the horses needs the most, for example six legs would make it hard to turn and would make the horse too long. But in the same way two legs wouldn't be enough because the horse would have to stand on its hind legs and since it wasn't made for two legs the horse wouldn't be able to stand up and would fall over.

What should you spray on the legs of a table to keep dogs from chewing on them?
You don't have to spray anything the only reason they chew on thing is because the dogs are bored. Get them out exercising as much as you can to end this problem. When you catch chewing on the legs of the table, make a sharp noise and give them something you DO want them to chew on.
