Is the sky blue? A sleepy boy today.

Anyone else have this same laundry problem? 😂
Trying to fold laundry and every time without fail she has to get right in the middle of it and go to sleep

Here are our 2 little ones(Mr. Milo Ackerman & Miss Millie Bean). Got them at 10 weeks old. 6+ months now...

Hey y’all- have to introduce my Karat girl to the world! She just turned 1 this month and as you all can see she is just a slice of yummy. Tan and Rojo big Rope frenchie 🎀

Hey all. I have a 1 year old female 50/50 Frenchie/Pug. She's amazing, and the cutest little ball of energy. When I work from home or on the weekends she's potty trained she can go all day without going until after work hours, despite being let out multiple times a day, she will hold it.

​

But returning to office is happening and she'll be on her own in the house more. Like clockwork, within 30 mins of the house being empty she'll have an accident. Usually one of each variety. Generously in the same spot every time despite cleaning with enzyme cleaners. And it's just once. She doesn't chew or anything else.

​

I have tried:

​

Leaving music on

Frozen kongs

Lick mats

Puzzle/treat dispensers to occupy her brain

​

I have crate trained since she was about 4 months old (she sleeps in it at night fine but if she knows we're leaving you'd think we're pouring acid on her.) Eventually she settles in the crate but it's not doing anything to break the anxiety all these months later. I honestly think it's just prolonged the anxiety, if she knows is the usual time that we all leave the house she screams her little face off.

​

I let her out several times before leaving, keep everything mellow, distract her with a high value long lasting toy...all the things the Google box says to do.

​

So, we've reached medication. My vet says once I start her on it to break the anxiety cycle it's forever? I can't wean her off of it once I'm confident of her state of mind?

​

Interested in the experiences of anyone else who has gone this route or has anything else I can try.

​

I can't get another dog, or pay regularly for doggie daycare/dog walker because I have humans in human daycare to pay for so that's not sustainable.

​

All right, hit me with it I'm listening.
