Is Your Dog Bored Or Is It Separation Anxiety

June 16th, 2008

It is important to determine whether your dog is misbehaving when you leave home because he is bored, or because he is experiencing a case of separation anxiety.

Figuring out why your dog is engaging in bad behaviors is usually the quickest way to combat the problem.

If boredom seems to be the issue, you can probably keep your dog from destroying your house during alone time by providing him a toy stuffed with treats or something else that will help exercise his mind a little.

If separation anxiety is the problem, you will need to learn ways to desensitize your dog to not only your absence, but also your “preparing to leave” routine.
