why does my dog go to the bathroom and then whines?

I have noticed that my dog would occasionally walk to our bathroom and then whimper quietly. He is 100% potty trained and usually paws/whimpers at the back door when he has to go. He doesn't love baths but doesn't fidget like other dogs during dog baths. The only times he is in the bathroom is when there is hot weather. Occasionally he sleeps on the floor mat in there too. Maybe once or twice he hid there when he knew he was in trouble.

But why would he voluntarily go to the bathroom and give out a soft whimper?Is he just trying to get our attention?
 
animals have favorite places my cat will claw at the bath room door until i open it and he too will curl up on the mat. or it could be on hot days its warmer in the bathroom and to cool in the rest of the house or vice versa depending on what dog it is. either that or maybe someones giving him a reason to think he did something wrong. and it could be possible he feels lonely and wants attention aome animals will hide sorta speak when they feel like that. next time you see him do that stand there and call his name if he starts wagging his tail or comes to you he probably just want attention, if not its most likely one of the others
