Have you ever dealt with a dog who experienced separation anxiety? Separation anxiety can present in dogs in myriad behaviors, and this can have a major impact not only on the dog but on the humans caring for those dogs.
In this episode, Libby and Emily dig into this issue with Jenni Pfafman. Jenni is a Certified Separation Anxiety Trainer with years of experience working in-person and virtually with dogs who deal with separation anxiety. The conversation opens with a case study about a recent SDR rescue pup, and how Jenni walked Emily through the process of managing - and decreasing - the dog’s separation anxiety. In this episode, they also discuss:
How to help dogs’ nervous systems relax
How to make a decision to use medication for dogs with separation anxiety
To crate or not to crate? When to crate a dog for safety vs. avoiding destruction
Going slow to go fast
Dogs experiencing separation anxiety from other dogs
