When I added Tucker to the fold and tried to keep him cordoned off in the kitchen, he had major separation anxiety. Then I put both Hannah and Tucker together in the kitchen and nobody was very happy. It wasn't until I let them both have the run of the house when we were gone that the both of them calmed down and it was like a miracle, Tucker's separation anxiety disappeared and Hannah was content.

Every case and every dog is different but in my case what seemed like a major problem was resolved by trying another strategy. Good luck and God bless you!
