dog training advice separation anxiety
What should I do with my new dog severe separation anxiety?
The dog is a border collie mix and year living with us for two months. He is very polite and well behaved when around him. Every time we leave our house, start whining and barking immediately, scratches in the door trying to leave the house. We have tried to cash process, use products like Comfort Zone with DAP homeopet drops of anxiety, bark collars, etc. and nothing worked. We said that regular exercise, practice our comings and goings for short periods of time and plenty of chew toys like Kongs, stuffed animals, and bones to occupy during the day. Our vet recommended we see an animal behavior and to put our dog on Prozac essential dog. Behaviorists have talking to will cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $ 450 to $ 600. The dog is great, but probably would have to return before the file much money on it. He attends doggie daycare 2 days per week and 1 day of obedience class. Any advice would be appreciated.
I spent exactly the same with my chihuahua, and ruined my life. It was the most important is the most amazing dog, but he also suffered. We everyhting you wrote about and costly behaviouists paid. His advice was basically to make love to her body. We have to feed him there, welcomed when he wanted to talk, try to give there. Entered in it, after weeks of doing for a few seconds at a time, then the second, moving would not have enough fear in us, that it would close the door and leave. I do not feel good with the supply of drugs for the rest of his life, so I continued to stay in my position. I would put in his cage, but instead of leaving, I would do the house work, etc., to show that his cage is not misplaced, which could put before us off their worst nightmare. To try to make a long story short, put some relaxing music … Home quieter when leaving for short periods of time before the long hours, and if all else fails … get a second dog! We two, so what we ended up doing them together. Now he is happy he is with her older sister. We have not done this in the beginning, because our daughter liked be in the cage alone, but we were desperate. Now all is well, and they love being together. Problem solved. Separation anxiety, was explained to me by veterinarians of several highly respected as long always awful lot of trouble. You do everything well, it seems … sure it is mentally stimulated (walks), DAP, etc. So if there is a great time truesly everyother dog, except when you consider a second dog, or having a dog walker coming days once or twice, depending of your work schedule. Usually, though in my area $ 10 each visit. This would help .. MORE … Remember … What are you guys or girls … Second House past puppy or third bell. Although they know I love you and you like … technically, was abandoned by his former love in his eyes. Consistent to Stay the coming months, and you could have a totally different dog. Anyone who feels like you give. Because what separation anxiety is at last …. or a fear of being abandoned. I hope this helped Soom. I am a true animal lover, and my dogs are my life ..
