awwwww poor baby! Separation anxiety is the worst!
I had this problem when we had a lab/blue tick hound mix. She was really attached to me because I was with her all day. We went away for a weekend and left her in a kennel where I know she got good care. The kennel has a great reputation and I know others who have used it. But, I think the separation was too much for her. When we came back, she was so happy to see us and seemed completely fine. But, only if I was with her at all times. If I left the room, she would follow me. I was okay with it, but then she would stand outside the bathroom door and cry when I took a shower. Broke my heart.
She had a favorite toy, it was a stuffed bear, so I made sure I handled it alot so it had my scent on it, and I took one of my old t-shirts and cut it and made a t-shirt for the bear. I would give it to her when I would leave or take a shower, and she would be fine. She would still wait outside the bathroom door, but she wouldn't cry. She would just lay there with her head on the bear lol
Anything with your scent on it will probably make him feel much better. Good luck! I know how frustrating it is because you hate to see them upset. |
