Hello all brand new to the forum,
My wife and I recently inherited a three year old female Yorkie, Mia, from our sister-in-law. This little dog is great. Very well trained and loving. However, both my wife and I work and this week was the first time she has been left alone for more than 8 hours. She does not chew, bark or mess the house. She just lies in her little bed all day. Normally, before this week when everyone was at the house she would always be around us, in our laps, and playing. Now we have to pick her up take her outside then the happy little dog shows up. Is this the famous separation anxiety I’ve read so much about? Any help would be great. P.S. she is eating the same and always does her stuff outside.
