That describes Emma!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one...I was also told to boost her confidence because she may feel insecure since we got her after Carmel and Carmel always "comes first". Well, I don't know what to do to boost her confidence. I have talked to the vet (two vets) about it...they didn't say much about the issue...I will look into the thundershirt, thanks!! It's comforting to know that I'm not the only one...
