The most common reason for a dog to hide under a bed is fear or anxiety. In some cases, dogs may just find the area under the bed comfortable. The temperature may be more preferable or the carpet may be softer under the bed because it hasn't been worn down. Some breeds, such as terriers, prefer burrows. The dark area under the bed can create this type of environment for your pup
the poor thing may have a case of the nerves and finding a dark cozy spot brings them some ease. i always though it was funny because my beagle just enjoyed being under the bed at times. he would take his toy under there and want to play lol
