Separation Anxiety

[sherile]

Isabel hates it when we leave. She knows the morning routine and she can be found every morning under the bed shivering her heart out. She has always had a companion, so when he got killed I had to get another to keep her company. I think it helps her, I know it helps us feel better about leaving her. The new guy I got, Moses, is attached to my ankle when I am home. I can't imagine leaving him alone, so they have each other (even though I think Isabel wishes he wasn't here sometimes!)

You have, he pretty much spearheaded modern day puppy training. Website seems to be dogstardaily, there's lots of youtube, and here's a good article:
The Anti-Cesar Millan / Ian Dunbar's been succeeding for 25 years with lure-reward dog training; how come he's been usurped by the flashy, aggressive TV host?

Oh, I just hate it when journalists have to put one person down, in order to compliment someone else. I love Cesar, but that doesn't mean, I can't love other trainers too!

Yeah, I'm picking up great tips from all of them. Millan is more of a rehabilitator than a trainer too, so, different modus operandi, and covers more of the wild half while Dunbar covers civil. A bit of those, some toddler-to-teen tips, individual style, and a lot of fun and aggravation is what I am gathering is a standard mix for yorkies

Yes, I agree, and since Yorkies are a breed (species ) of their own, we need all the help we can get!

Teddy has this. When I am getting ready to leave he knows..when I put on my jacket and get my keys..or even when my phone rings he starts to get anxious.
