| Could it be? Seperation Anxiety! .... Well i have been having my Gracie for 2 months now and i leave her home every once and a while. When she is home alone she is in the bathroom with toys food etc etc ... any way im worried about her and seperation anxiety! she starts shaking when i go to put her in there she knows its coming and she tries to hide! it makes me feel so bad i cant be with her every minute but she isnt in there for long i thought she would be used to it by now but she isnt! when i get home she will run around and jump n cry on me for like 15 minutes! i dont know what i could do to help this i dont want to have all that stress but school will start in a few weeks so i have no choice but to leave her a little while! Thanks everyone for all the responses!!!

| It may be separation anxiety if your pup shakes. You can actually get some medicine to ease the symptoms if you talk to your vet. You can also spend some time with her in the bathroom to make her like the place better. Have you tried crate training her? They learn to feel safe in their crates, and that might help. Oh, and one more thing, I remember reading that making your dog wear a shirt may help because the fabric embraces their body and makes them feel a little safer. I hope things will get better. Good luck.

| You could also sleep with a towel or small blanket or even a stuffed toy to get your scent on it, and put that in with her and Leave a radio playing. |
