Separation Anxiety
Many pet owners know how hard it is to leave your pets. Sadly separation anxiety is becoming more prevalent as our lives get busier as we take on more commitments in our everyday lives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of the most common complaints furparents have are that their dogs become fearful, destructive with many resulting in excessive barking and yelping.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are many ways we can help our pets overcome this. Crate training and positive reinforcement techniques are ideal and teaches them to overcome this fear.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In some cases medication and animal behaviourists may be required and this is perfectly fine - every situation is different and there is no “perfect” way of overcoming this. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes we think we find it hard to leave our pets, little do we know sometimes they have it tough too!
