We have 3 Yorkies and all are rescues. Two have some separation anxiety. One will bark and perhaps try to grab your pant leg or shoe as you leave the house. One, a puppy miller breeder rescue, will jump up and bite our legs as we try to leave. I go out my front door derriere first and have a shopping bag as a blocker.
We're thinking of giving them all their favorite treat s we leave the house, or calling a dog trainer. we can't take the idea of locking them in cages. They are all mature and they do not hurt anything in house when left out to roam free. I am home in the daytime so they are around me most of the time. I try not to leave them for more than a couple of hours. Please share anything that you learn!
