I think it's just a way of getting attention and initiate play. The two dogs I have that do it are both really timid. It's less scary to approach the human from behind. The nips are very gentle, not a bite at all. Both Sundin and Mac playbow and woo at me when I turn around. I've seen the dogs do it to each other too. It almost always leads to a game of chase or Siberian WWF!
