Typically, the domestic dog doesn't take the food all that far away. It wants to be able to keep an eye on the rest of the food in the bowl. ... Apparently this behavior is seen more often when dogs are being fed hard kibble out of metal bowls. They might not like the noise the kibble makes.

Many dogs push their food bowls around; it might be vestigial to the dog's foraging instinct.

Many dogs also pick food out of the bowl and carry it to another location to eat it.

Depending on the breed of your dog, and dominance level, it's food looks rather bleak.
