Help!!
This is what my dog sounds like the second he can’t see me, I will go into my closet or leave the room. The second he cant see me he goes ballistic. Hes been fed, taken out and we usually do training everyday as well as going to the park or going on a minimum of a 2 mile walk/hike. I’ve been told he will do this for hours after I leave and my landlord is threatening to kick me out if I do not rehome him or figure out how to keep him quiet.
I got him as a tot, around 4 months old from a rescue. I’ve been trying to fix this since then, leaving him for a few hours at a time and slowly building up. He is left in a crate while i’m gone and I have someone in another room that takes him out potty every few hours. He’s around 14 months now and it has gotten worse, I can’t leave to do laundry or get food from my kitchen. I have tried staying out of the room until he stops crying but he will go for hours. We went to a trainer about it and he is currently doing boundary training as an outlet. I’ve been thinking about taking him to the vet to put him on some anxiety meds but he’s already on apoquel for his environmental allergies and I don’t want to overload him with medications. I am looking for some advice on what to do, I’m willing to put in time to train him.
