Re: Help Please!!

Make your leaving and coming back VERY low key..no big deal..so he doesn't pick up on any anxiety you may have about this. Give him something GREAT to occupy him when you leave....like a KONG stuffed with all kinds of great things to eat.

If you make leaving and coming back low key, he'll soon learn that yes..you leave..but...you come back too . Remember..be very matter of fact.. I just say. "Be right back" and off I go. Do not look back...say bye bye with confidence and he'll learn to trust and be confident too.


Dogs can read us like a book and they pick up on body language and tone of voice.

Let us know how it goes :o)
