HELP ! Separation Anxiety Bella is 8 weeks old. We picked her up last Saturday. When she is left alone, she cries....and by cry, I mean, she sounds like a bird being tortured. I tried putting her in a crate with my sweatshirt. I bought a bear that has "womb sounds", a ticking clock.....nothing seems to help unless she is touching me. Any suggestions? I am lucky enough to be able to be home with her, but I do occasionally need to run errands lol And I cant stand the thought of her doing this the WHOLE time.

Awwww she is so sad. Teach her to be quite in a bag and take her along :). She misses her mom and litter mates and you have taken their place. I have no good advice. ( maybe another yorkie) no that's not the best choice either How about a radio? |
We have 2 other yorkies, a 7 month old and a 9 year old. I am scared to leave them alone just yet. The older on, Zoe, thats 9 is a little diva. The 7 month old is fine with her, she just likes to play alot. I just want to observe them a little more before leaving them alone for more than 10 min. I leave the tv on Spongebob, for noise, but apparently shes not a fan lol |
Lo maybe music. Lol. Yes I would be worried also leaving her with one of those until sure. Can she see them and not be with them. Idk just a idea |
1 Attachment(s) This bear helps a lot to get her to sleep, but thats when I am right here lol |
Awwww she is so cute. Guess you just can not leave till she is comfortable :). Who wants to see her sad |
Luckily my mom lives next door and she is often able to come sit with her while I run to bank, etc. My daughter, that is in vet school, is coming home from college today, so I will have more help lol Hopefully she grows out of this soon. Its just heartbreaking to hear. |
I agree it is heartbreaking that she is so sad. She is going to be your number one fan probably forever :). Keep us posted on how it's going |
Given that she is soo young could be one issue. 3 of my dogs were at least 12-13 weeks old before they came to me and my other little guy was only 9 weeks old when we got him and I could tell a such a big difference with the separation anxiety. We had a terrible time with him. He would not sleep with the other dogs for at least 6 month after we got him, He had to be placed in a crate in our bedroom. When we were at work during the day we would leave a TV on. He was placed in an xpen and Iwould give him interactive toys to try and keep him occupied. Peanut butter and treats left inside a kong toy would keep him busy for at least an hour. Over time he became more and more comfortable to be left in his xpen while we were gone. It will get better.:animal36 |
