Hi all - a co-worker just adopted a 5 mo old Lab/GSD Mix from the Buffalo Animal Shelter and she seems to be suffering from severe separation anxiety. I told her that it would probably take a while for the dog to realize that she will always return (you know how hard it is for some shelter dogs to learn to trust), but I thought some of you out there would have some suggestions. I suggested a peanut butter filled kong to keep her occupied as well as covering her crate with a blanket to make it feel more den like and secure. Any other ideas?? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
