Separation Anxiety Training
If your dog is having issues with being alone, Harmony Puppy is here to help.
We understand these stressful behaviors are coming from a place of panic. Harmony puppy also knows the emotional toll separation anxiety can take on the guardians. The love for your dog mixed with the frustration and confusion on why you cannot leave your dog alone.
I am a certified Separation Anxiety Professional Trainer.
We will work together to:
Help your dog get over the anxiety of being alone. Desensitizing absences is our major tool in helping dogs with separation anxiety.
Help your dog decrease stress in other parts of their lives that may help when being left alone.
Help guardians cope with stress and find ways to help them get some reprieve.
Separation Anxiety is an umbrella of behaviors a dog can experience in the absence of their guardian.
Some of the behaviors can be continuous barking, whining, pacing, destructive chewing, going to the bathroom indoors, and trying to escape from confinement or the home.
Let’s review what separation anxiety is NOT:
A bored, under exercised under stimulated dog or puppy that chews up the shoes, pillows, books and gets into the garbage.
A dog trying to be willful or stubborn and just will not settle in their crate.
A dog not fully potty trained and pees or poops in the home when you are gone.
A dog that starts barks out the window at other dogs, people, squirrel’s, cats, sounds outside an apartment then settles in a few minutes.
