That is a whole 'nother issue. My DH and I used voice on tape for that. Taping his voice reading a book for a long time and then setting it in the bathroom, on play. Letting the dog think he was in the bathroom and sneaking out. After awhile the dog got used to the idea that daddy was coming back when he left and we no longer had to use it. (this was done for our 80lb mix breed shelter dog, none of the others had this issue, and he is a daddy's boy).

I wouldn't use the bark repeller for anxiety because it is not a behavioral issue it is a phsychological problem and would just cause the dog more issues. You can't stop anxiety without finding and addressing the source.
