Yeah, that makes sense to me.
Jackson's kind of a funny dog because he's not really a velcro to me... I can walk all around the house and he will stay in 1 spot (but always have his eye on me, of course). It's like he's totally fine with me going wherever as long as his access to me isn't blocked off. But, if he's behind a gate for example, and I'm on the other side of it and he can see me.... he will whine and bark. He just doesn't like the feeling of NOT being able to get to me, if he decided he wanted to be. Am I making sense? LOL.
But he's had no troubles when I've slept away from him for the night... when I leave the house, he's fine. It's just when he can see me/know I'm out there and can't get to me, ha! He also doesn't really cuddle up with me, he prefers to lay at my feet on my bed every night.
But anyways, I can totally see how this could help with dogs that suffer from separation anxiety. |
