| Pet-calm Has anyone used Richards Organics Pet Calm to treat anxiety and stress? We are working on separation anxiety for Zoe. We are fortunate in that I work from home most of the time, that means Zoe has been with me almost all the time since I got her at 12weeks. She is now almost 5 months and cries if I do have to leave her. I had no choice but to leave her for 4 hours the other week as I had to catch a flight and my friend was tied up and could get to my house right away. I have a web cam that I can watch her with on my iPhone and she cried on and off for the entire 4 hours. And then when I get home she cries on my lap for another 5 minutes. I have been working on her this week by leaving her every day for an hour just to help her get used to it, but I saw this at the pet store yesterday and I thought it might help. Any advise is appreciated. Oh yes when I do leave her I block off the kitchen which a small area and she is used to that area as that is where she always eats and drinks. I put her favorite toys with her, her blankie she sleeps with, some of my clothes and her pee pad. I also hide treats around, but when I return she hasn't eaten any treats, she doesn't play with any of her toys. |

| Hi there, I think you are doing great by leaving her an hour at a time and work up to a few hours. Hopefully someone will check in and help you, their are many experienced dog owners here and are good to help when they can.
