It's hard ....
Chewie does have separation anxiety, when he sees us getting dressed to leave he goes in his crate and just mops there. Or he starts howling after we leave and put him in his pen. And when we come home he always pees when he sees us. Until now my boyfriend was always home with him all day, but now he started working part time and some days Chewie is alone from 7 AM to 6 PM and I can see when I get home he doesn't know what to do with himself from joy that someone is at home.
I was looking for a trainer to come to work with us on the housebreaking, and I am not afraid of the extra work involved with a second dog.
But you have a point with vacations (where to leave both of them), as until now Chewie always stayed with friends, he was never in a kennel.
I have to think a lot and very carefully... |
