I was wondering if I am giving him too much attention? I am with him all the time. I do work on his alone time when I am working from home. I leave him crated or in his pen throughout the day as well even when I'm home to practice his alone time (often just an arms reach away or in the same room even though he whines).

But I don't like to leave him alone and have been taking him around in a carrier on errands and stuff. Should I be leaving him at home more? He has only been home alone a few times the longest was 4 hours once (earlier today), and 2 hours once and a 3 hour period once.
Is he too young to be left alone or should I start working on his alone time already? He's just 13 weeks old.
HE is old enough for some alone time in his crate or play pen. Dont deny him attention though because you are worried about separartion anxiety because alot of this is because of his age
