Default Problem with my terrier

I have a dog. A foxy Russell terrier crossed with maybe bull terrier or
staffy. Anyway, he is a household pet. On the couch with me. He has
always been my dog. for a while there post divorce etc life was just me and
my dogs. He sits on my lap or next to me when I'm sitting watching TV etc.

The problem? Well, I have been in hospital two or three times over the last
couple of years and I was wondering if this is part of the problem. In that
while I have had to have time off work, like 2 years or so to get pain under
control etc I wonder if my dog thinks I'm not coming home again as I have
been at work for the last two weeks now. He is howling. A really mournful
howl. Now I thought at first it might have something to do with a dog over
the back of our yard that maybe is on heat. It's like his heart is broken.
He seems to settle down when I am home. When I'm out, he howls. My partner
and two kids and the other dog are home with him but it's beginning to ****
them off. He will stop sometimes. For an hour or so during the day but
then starts howling again.

As I say, he settles down when I'm home. He ahs always been a needy kinda
guy and has to be with. But its getting silly.
