Kiba and Seperation Anxiety...
"Phyrie" wrote in message ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQUmxUScDu0 snipped So, did we do OK? Or should I be watching for some other symptom? I'm comfy with his performance today, but what the hell do I know? Thanks for listening, -- Phyrie Kiba the Cav's Pics: http://www.flickr.com/photos/phyrie/...758930/detail/ Kiba seemed to do great, especially for his first time. I think eventually he will fall into a routine. Gracie usually falls asleep on our bed while we are gone, while often times we observe Merlin watching for us from his favorite upstairs window. He can see far up and down the road from that window. Gracie had severe separation anxiety when I first got her. Just as you did this time, I began leaving her uncrated for short periods of time, gradually increasing the time. When I got her I was warned 'she could destroy a house in less than 10 minutes if left uncrated. She apparently tore down every blind on the windows of one of her foster homes. After that she was relegated to 'outside' fosters only. By doing as you are, short trips, low key leaving and returning, she never was a problem and now we can leave her all day without incident. Loved the video! Hope you will post more. Best of luck, td |
