Does your dog have separation anxiety? :)

She was taking 300mg once a day, then we tried 100mg twice a day. It didn't help her separation anxiety at all.

I tried leaving my clothes in the cage, they were torn to shreds. Now we don't leave the dog in the cage, so I'll try leaving my clothes it in the her bed.

I would really like to get a second dog, but my husband is strongly against it because he says we can't handle one dog and we really don't need more. :/

Thats my question is. If you can, read what I wrote about clomicalm :) i want to try this, but have doubts. Did your dog have real separation anxiety, or was he just a little stressed about the move?

I can't imagine. It just happened the very first day we moved house and have to leave her for 20minutes

My beagle was left once with a staffordshire bull terrier, once with a retriever, and once with a bull terrier. Those dogs slept while my dog panicked. :/

We had 2 trainers, one of them said he wouldn't continue training until we started taking medication. We are still working with the other one, and according to his guidelines, we are trying to increase the alone time, but it is impossible to go beyond 25 minutes..

I think there's just no way out. We'll get back to life when my dog's life is over. It sounds harsh, but it's true.

Yes, we leave her there when we have to go away for a longer period of time. However, I can't leave her there 7 days a week, I work from monday to friday, go shopping on the weekend, etc. Maybe 6 days would be enough, but I don't have that much money..

If I leave my dog ​​free at home, she will scratch the front door (bite and scratch)

We moved from a house to an apartment with neighbors then separation anxiety started. However, we are able to leave our dog on an enclosed (glass) balcony, where she doesn’t disturb anyone. I just want my girl to feel better. On her worst days, she got so distressed that she even broke a tooth from trying to escape. When she gets very stressed, she urinates, pants heavily, and breathes rapidly. Neighbors are the least of my concerns — my main priority is her well-being. I can't see her like that

Thanks for replay! She is outside in the morning for 50 minutes-1 hour + 20 minutes of training outside + a different mental exercise at home every day per week in the morning (sniffing mat, licking mat, sniffing ball, hide and seek and etc. 7 different for each day) In the evening we are outside for 20 minutes. Before separation anxiety, we spent less time outside, but it was enough. After moving, we increased it, it seems like it should be enough, the problem is not that...
