 Hate being seperated
I'm sure this has been brought up before. Today when I left, Bella was not happy. My nephew was here at my house for a few hours and he told me that Bella barked the whole time I was gone. He would even go to the back door and carry her back to the living room and hold her and talk to her but she would jump down run back to the door and bark. I'm assuming this would be consider seperation anxiety. I was hoping not but I'm thinking it is. WHAT CAN I DO? I don't want her to be miserable and she needs to get used to it. I am a stay at home wife, so that makes the situation more difficult. This is the my first yorkie. I've done research on them since May and just got her 4 weeks ago. She is 16 months old. I know they perfer to be with their people 24/7 but that just isn't possiable all the time. Any suggestions will help. I'm also going to borrow Cesars (dog whispers) book from my daughter. Hoping to find some suggestions in it.
Thanks, Loretta and Bella |
