Separation Anxiety

They have different kinds of muzzles for different kinds of dogs, so I'm going to assume yes. Take him to Pet Smart & try some on. Since he doesn't bark there is no need to get the kind that will keep his mouth closed... But it might be the cheapest muzzle. He doesn't need anything fancy as hes not an aggressive dog, but comfort is important too. You don't want him getting nose sores from it rubbing him to harshly.

Have you seen the big stuffy Digi has on her bed? Its bigger then her LOL she loves to cuddle up to it. Maybe a big stuffy friend would help comfort him?

I would not recommend EVER muzzling a dog with seperation anxiety. Especially if he's drooling and panting excessively. D: Muzzles are very stressful, even if you desensitize him to wearing a muzzle. I would never leave a muzzle on a dog and leave them alone.

It sounds like an herbal supplement, like Rescue Remedy, could help him a lot. I gave Fozzie RR when I first started working on his SA. It helped a lot, and he doesn't get nearly as worked up as it sounds like poor Springen does.

Thanks. I don't know if I really feel comfortable with muzzling my anxious pup anyway.
So this isn't really a medication? How does it calm them? I will go google it now and read up on it. Thanks for the suggestion, Erica
