DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

“I can’t leave the room or run an errand without barking or panic.”

When stepping away is difficult, start with comfort and a workable care plan. Learn what to observe beyond barking, how to practise a very small separation and when to repeat, simplify or seek individual help.

Who this is for

Puppy owners managing following, barking or distress during separation, including owners using records alongside an existing veterinary or behaviour plan.

A NOTE ON EXPECTATIONS

Support for
Your next step.

  • Not a diagnosis or cure for separation anxiety and not a promise of errand readiness by day 30.
  • Severe or repeated distress, injury or inability to find a comfortable starting point requires professional help; do not run tests to panic.
  • No universal age-based alone-time allowance or fixed daily duration targets are provided.
