Dog behavior
Hello all. I have a dog in my care who has separation anxiety but I was not told he did. I asked the owners before they dropped him off and they said no, he is able to stay alone for 2-4 hours. Well I stepped out for an hour and he barked the whole time, driving my own dogs crazy. I suppose I will tell the owners when they get back from vacation but in the meantime, what do you do when you need to step out? He is not crated. I put baby gates up to separate my dogs from the guest dog in a very large space (kitchen, eating area and living room, its all an open area) clearly he needs to be around people. Needless to say, he is with me for 7 more days. Besides that he is a good dog but I feel stuck at home now. Thanks for your advice.
I had a dog stay and he did same thing what I did was leave music on and gave him some toys with good smelling food in it he stayed quiet I tested my thoughts out before really leaving I went outside and next door he was quiet between music and something to chew on he was fine
