Hey there, dog lovers! 🐾

Let's talk about the dreaded "S" word... Separation anxiety 😱! It's a common problem among dogs of all kinds and can lead to some pretty destructive behavior. But fear not, with a little patience and consistency, you can help your pup feel comfortable being alone and prevent separation anxiety! 

First things first, start leaving your pup alone for short periods and gradually increase the time. Of course, provide plenty of toys and chew treats to keep your pup occupied and create a comfortable and safe space for them to rest, like their crate.

This is a big one…when you return, avoid making a big fuss and keep your greeting calm and low-key. Remember, consistency is key 🔑!

With a little bit of obedience training and dog empowerment, your pup will be ready to take on the world.
