| separation anxiety problem ..... I just wanna say hi to everyone first. - I'm new here - And new to yorkie too - I'm a pet sitter n walker, awhile ago. One of my customer sent his akc yorkie to me cuz he has to leave town. He was 9months his no skills and Untrain. He do whatever he wants. Jumps up n down my bed , sofa, chair, anything. He's just 4lbs which is really tiny , I don't want he hurts himself by jumping around like this. He Potty anywhere. Poo or pee... He Doesn't know anything even sit . Down. come. Or his name. He stays with me at my room. He follow me around if I Move he will get up and stick to me immediately. If I go nearby my door , he looks at me like : omg omg omg where a u going ? If I don't bring him , he yells , digging , and nonstop crys. I have to bring him with me anywhere since I live with my friend n her family. I don't want to bother them too much. i did my best to trained him potty outside. He learn sit ,down ,come ,stay , something like this really fast. But i can't do anything to stop him crys. then.... Like a month n half later .... His owner said he doesn't want him,He is going to sale him out. Hmmm....I always want to have a new dog, I want to have a show dog. I went to a lot of dog shows. I want to learn more n start mine ... I was waiting for the right one. He is cute, I like him....He's tiny and he is an Akc too. I'm not so sure if he can be a show dog. But is ok , I can still learn even he's not. since I'm with him already, So I decided to buy him myself. Chikubi is 15 months old now. Potty trained outside but I want to teach him to potty on pee pad too. He seems doesn't know is ok to pee on pee pad- When he wants to go potty, I teach him to go on the pee pad, And ....he stands there won't go.. Ok. I bring him out. Now.... He will go on the pee pad and look at me when he wants to go potty. Hmmm. I think he misunderstand what is the pee pad for.... I started to do a lot of research everyday....day n night. And finally I know He has separation anxiety ... Is really annoying n bother me n ppl in house. Everytime I went out he's nonstop crys n yell. I am not going to give up. I don't want to give up. I'm really tired. I know he stress out but so do I.. I have been doing those things that I found online to help separation anxiety. I create trained him a month ago . he is getting a little bit better but still.. Now ,He knows what is different between I just go out of my room or I am going to leave my house n going out. He is ok sometimes if I just Leave a bit go kicten or restroom or dinner At living room... But he is not always claim n relax when I'm not at my room . The only time he is totally ok I go out of my room is at midnight when he's sleeping. I bought him a kong treats toy few days ago. Tried two times without get ready to leave home. I told him to go back his create n I gave him the kong. He likes it , but when I get up to leave my room , He drop it down n keep looking at me. I left for few mins n back , he is still at the same spot looking at the door waiting me. I act like nothing n walked around my room. He still keep on looking at me and try to get out of the create to come to me. I sat down and look at my laptop act nothing. He wait a min , n finally relax to go back to eat his Kong. yesterday, I was just cleaning my room, Packing n dump some stuff I don't use. He get worst. He crys a little when I was cleaning Inside my room. Seems like he thought I'm packing n leave... He was really nerves n wasn't act normal. When I was trying to push the big box out of my room, He already started yell n cry out loud , I was still inside my room. At night my friend knock my door he barks really loud, he doesn't usually do that. I really want to help him asap. Is really painful for me or for him. I want him to be relax and happy to enjoy his life without stress n afraid. Is been a long time , I started feel tried and stress now. I'm not going to give up. But I just have to talk to u guys if Sorry about my English and the long story... Hope Is not very boring. I still have a lot questions and problems. But seems like i say too much already - Hope I can get some reply here and get to know more info n helps. Thanks a lot ;( |

| Hi! I know exactly what you mean, my boy is like this too. Our vet put him on Prozac and I also bought him a thunder shirt and the thunder spray. He's been on the medicine for 2 months and nothing is working. I have anxiety myself so I don't want him going through this, but I don't feel like there's anything else I can do. I know our vet said we may also be able to try xanax but it's very serious. We shall see. Def talk with your vet about trying medicine
