Default Strange behavior with the toilet

Make sure there are no obstructions in your vent stack, dead squirrel,
blob of leaves etc.
Other than physical damage to the bowl the only thing removing water
besides a flush would be a vent problem or dogs drinking.
If the vent is clogged then a suction can be applied to the bowl by
other parts of the plumbing/sewer system.
Sometimes in very high winds you can see the water in the bowl move as
the wind passing over the stack changes pressure inside.
