Helping a Puppy Going Through Separation Anxiety

RE: Helping a Puppy Going Through Separation Anxiety Post By suzi_homemaker01 (Guest Post) (02/11/2008) The windup clock is a miracle or really any clock that ticks loud that you can place close by will work. Also, playing music or a TV will help ease the lonliness. The smalller the bed area the better so that they feel cozy like they did when cuddling with mom and siblings. Toys to play with and chew on, frequent visits and lots of love will help. Good luck!

I go and check on him 4 times out of the day. I understand that he is young but actually everything is working out okay!! I did place a shirt in the kennel and I leave the radio on and he has a chew bone and cuddle toy. How the time works out he is only alone for 2-3 before I can go check on him. He is doing awesome. Training is going well. He is sitting when I say and I am now working on the stay part. Thank you everyone for your feedback!!

If you keep going down to check on her every time she cries or whines you are being trained by your dog, not the other way around. Check out some local dog trainers for advice and please enroll your pup in obedience training! important for every dog AND owner no matter the breed. Also, if you want the crate in the dining room thats where it should stay! Do not move it from room to room. good luck!

The puppy is crying for a reason. He's lonely. You might want to let him in the bedroom where there is people. Dogs are pack animals. The owners are the alpha and we stay together. Moma or sibling dogs don't separate from one another. Once he gets use to being away from the original pack, he will settle into your pack.

Just rest assured, they will stop in at least the next month, and I know with my guy he only cries when we are in the house and he REALLY doesn't want to be in his crate. :) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Helping a Puppy Going Through Separation Anxiety Post by MCW (375) | (02/04/2008) Profile | Blog! | Contact I've read some where or I've heard that a wind-up clock simulates the heart break of the puppy's mother. So give it a try and see if it works. Report Spam or Abuse
