Hi V, when your son comes could you go out when he is there and just take shorter trips when he isn't? I suppose that would work if you decide to work at home but of course if you are gone most of the day I think getting her used to it in small amounts and then gradually increasing it would be the only way I can think of at the moment. I know when I first got Crystal I only gave her a treat when I left so she would look forward to me leaving and it worked but dogs are so different. It will take time for her just as it will for you. |
