I spoke with a client this morning that has a big problem. Her dog has separation anxiety. She can't stand it when her owner leaves and starts barking and nipping when she goes for her purse. Last night her anxiety worsened with the storm (also a common anxiety problem). The worst part is this poor gal didn't tell us sooner. She's being driven crazy by her dog's crazy behavior, but she's so in love with her pup she wouldn't dare part with her. There are other options! These anxieties are very common and there are lots of treatment and training options available.
So this is a plea to all of our clients. Please tell us if you are having any problems with your pets. If we can't help, I'm sure we know someone who can. There are specialists in many areas of veterinary medicine including behaviorists. Many pets have "issues" just like the rest of us.
