Now, she is a year old and she is fine when I leave for a few hours and come back. She does get excited but has learned to 'contain herself' until I come to say hi to her. She also sleeps in a separate room at night in her xpen with Spike. I think that has helped a lot too.
I think that's great, and I think that some people don't think to do this with their puppy because not every dog develop's seperation anxiety.

Everyone should take into consideration, that when we treat them like our child, they think of us as their parent.
I've definitely learned alot!!!!!
