It is a reaction from their muscles because when you scratch their stomachs it feels really good so then their muscles get a signal from their brain that makes their leg shake sometimes as a reaction to the pleasure they feel. Sometimes they do this and sometimes they dont.

Dogs shake their leg when they get tickled and most dogs get tickles on their tummy. That's why a dog shakes his leg when you scratch(tickle) his tummy.

I think it's like a reflex thing.Or maybe they think they're scratching it their selves.
