Relax, no insinuation here. Just my peaceful opinion. I've read alot about dog pack nature is all. I love Tamar Gellers book, The Loved Dog especially.
It just doesn't fit with pack nature to separate a dog at night if the dog seems to be fearful of separating and actually calling it fear or anxiety makes no sense since it is their nature to want to stay close. Some are great on their own too but it is ok and natural and "dog like" in a dog pack way, to want to be close to the pack.
