What you need to do is treat your leaving as if it is just another part of the day
no kisses
no bye byes
just leave ..... any attention at this time calls attention to the fact that she is suddenly all alone
Radio TV does sometimes help
for puppies .... an item of clothing that smells of you sometimes comforts them
dogs are also den animals
and it sometimes helps to have a crate or a small space the puppy can climb into instead of having the run of a large area |
Or, if where you live allows more than one pet per address, and you can afford it, another yorkie to keep the other one company.
