[QUOTE=Ladylavender]I agree:
1. Never ever make a big deal when you leave or come home. Don't say good bye, don't acknowledge your puppy when you get home. Just leave and just come, as if you went to the garage or outside for a few minutes. No big deal.
I agree!!! and the sites given were excellent. I might add one more thing
I did when I was trying to get my first yorkie not to be upset when I left.
I tried to get her to want me to leave lol. Well it's better than thinking of her being upset all the while I was gone. She loved the little bil jac liver treats...so I gave her one only when I left but I didn't make a big deal out of and for sure didn't say much coming into the house again. It didn't take long and Molly was so happy to see me go, you just would not believe it. That was the only time she got a liver treat for the remaining of her life ( of course she got other things) now and then and yet I am not big on treats. |
