Sounds like my Tibbe. He develops an anxiety from time to time - as do I. I have methods to work through mine and a lot of people to talk about it with, books to read, errands to run - things that get my mind off it until I sort of move on. Tibbe doesn't have much to help him through his but me. I try to distract him with games, training, taking him outside, anything to not allow the situation to percolate too long. I try not to soothe him(as hard as that is) when he is acting so unstable but just to get all that energy redirected into another activity ASAP. With a lot of patience and persistence, we have worked through any issues that came. It has all worked out so far with Tibbe but from time to time, up will jump something else probably. As I am currently disabled, I think he senses my difficulties and he is reacting to it by being a bit unsettled. But 99% of the time, Tibbe is a pistol and tearing around the house running the world as only he can do.
