Re: Question about separation anxiety and eating rocks, bolts, etc. Thanks for the info! King is going to be 7 in October. We adopted him from an animal about three years ago. His previous owners abused him, By the time we adopted him, he had alot of issues. We have worked through some of them, but we still have a long way to go. He is very possessive of his toys, food, and Daddy!! King spends about 8 1/2 hours in the crate. We had two other rotties that had the run of the house, but with him, we tried, but it didn't work. I don't like to keep him in the crate, but we do not have a choice at the moment. Because of the sepratation anixiety, he feels comfortable in the crate.
Besides all of the issues that King has, he did turn out to be a very loving dog. He follows us every where, but also remains indepenant. As I am writing this, he is out side with my husband playing with his tire!! |
