He's been more needy than usual, he comes and sits in front of me and will just wine and shake. I know these dogs are more anxious than most dogs but I dont know what to do?!?! I take him on other doggie play dates, we go for walks and I even play with him often. I feel so bad because he's constantly pacing the house just looking around, he's currently at the front door crying and I don't know what to do! It almost breaks my heart I thought since its been a few weeks since my husband left that he would just forget him. Any others have issues with their yorkie doing this? Please help, any advice is much appeciated!! Thank you

Way back when my late Lizzie was a puppy. She would do the same thing when my hubby went on Field Duty or TDY. What always worked for us, was giving Lizzie some of her Daddy's T-Shirts to sleep with.
The she finally got used to him being gone alot.
