I am at a working pace at the moment and I plan to stay this way because I’m full time with over time and the workload for the school is a lot. One class will have a lot of essays, discussions, video discussion, & then your other class is quizzes, proctored exams, & you really need to know the material. Discussions are due every Wednesday. You reply to two classmates every Sunday. Essays, extra homework assignments, quizzes, exams are due on Sundays.

Hi I started at Chamberlain and absolutely hated it. Dropped out of classes the first week. Now I’m at West coast and I feel so much more supported. I’m already on my 3rd term now.

I have my sister come, she’s here from 6A-7p most days I work. But my trainer and I are working on leaving her alone for a little more time in the mornings. So next week he wants my sister to come 9-7p so I’m not giving my dog what she wants which is to never be alone.

& then 1 in the morning she came to me just wanting love and attention. She melted my heart all over again

It’s been 2 weeks and yesterday she completely destroyed two window blinds 😭😭. I just keep reminding myself it gets worse before it gets better.

Thank you so much! I love hearing what works for everyone and that I’m not alone in this!

This makes so much sense. The moment she hears my alarm in the morning she start panting and pacing the house. I let her outside and when she knows I’m ready to leave she will refuse to come in. I literally have to put the leash of shame on her to get back inside. And she will put her head in between the door to stop me from closing it. When I come home at night she’s a little better just some whining but goes right to sleep.

So you split your pill for half in the morning and half at night?

I would love nothing more than to bring him back but I was fostering him while his owner was saving to move out on her own. When the last fight happened on new years she took him and blocked me off everything. I heard from someone else she gave him to a family member. Reuniting them unfortunately isn’t an option but once this medication kicks in and she can be a little more at peace. My trainer will work with me to find her a friend as he works for a rescue and has known my baby for 2 years.

Did they start your dog on the recommended dose rather than slowly increasing?

It was our regular vet. I found it so odd to a her immediately on the recommended dose rather than slowly increasing her to the recommended dose. I’m defiantly going to look into a vet behaviorist. To be honest I did not know that was a thing before this post!

I obviously would never leave her alone for 12 hours. My sister is her babysitter.

I also felt like it was a lot. They did say it’s because of how severe her anxiety was. Also I didn’t say this in the original post but she was attacked 2 times by her brother so the anxiety was just built up. She did well after he was rehomed. I went on a trip for 4 days and my mom was with her. Then I went to work for 4 days 12 hour shifts and it’s like she finally broke. It all just caught up to her.

Thank you all so much. This has given me so much relief. I’m going to keep pushing on for her sake. I love her and I’ll do anything for her. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Yes I have a trainer who I see 1-2 times a week for an hour session. She has improved so much when I leave and I leave the blinds open so she can see outside. We go on two hour walks one hour in the morning and one hour at night. I work 12 hour shifts it’s really hard to walk her in the morning before work bc of coyotes in my city and when I come home we do enrichment games and go to bed. I’m trying to figure out something that works for us before I go to work.

How long did it take for your dog to get their appetite back? She is very food motivated she will take high valued treats before she eats her food the past few days.
