Puppy poos while standing on hind legs

Question
My puppy has been attempting to poo while standing on her hind legs (leaning against the grilles of the crate). Why is this so?  

Answer
Shannon-

She may just be doing it for leverage (Honestly, I have seen dogs do that) or because it is her own little quirk! If her poos are nice and normal, I wouldn't be concerned.

If she is turned so that her rump is against the crate, she is most likely trying to poop in a "safe" place, and not in her sleeping corners.

Congrats on your puppy!
