My niece adopted a border collie that had that but when my niece would leave in in the car for 5 minutes she tore the inside of the car up, in that short of a time she did huge amount of damage,while my niece was at work, she loves animals and was really trying to help this one, but she just couldn't keep her very sad, and she was a vet tech at the time

The things I told you are things that can happen with puppies taken to soon not necessarily will happen but one cause of separation anxiety is them being to young but there are other causes too. I could not tell you if my little guys issues where from being thrown from house to house before 9 weeks or leaving his mom to young or both. He would get in the shower with whoever was watching him because he didn't want to be alone even if he has toys in the bathroom right outside the shower. I would really love to help you with any questions you have and I love helping people but I felt your one post was really nasty maybe I just read it wrong but it felt like you were telling me I shouldn't be giving out advise if I have my own issues and that was a bit hurtful. Most of the stuff I give advice about is because I have experienced it or learned in great detail about it. I'm not just some stupid poster on a message forum. I have three yorkies my oldest has been through heck and back because of bad breeding and I just want to help people so they can avoid some of the things I have seen and gone through. Looking in her eyes when she is suffering and there is nothing I can do breaks my heart and makes me very mad about bad breeding. I love my dogs very much and none of them came from good breeders. I didn't know any better with my oldest and my other two were rescues that came from people who didn't want them anymore. I also am a certified vet assistant. I'm sorry if I got nasty with you and hurt your feelings like you hurt mine I was just trying to honestly help.
