My little 9 month old Royce (I call him "the Royce dog") has the worst case of separation anxiety I have ever seen with any animal or even human.
When my wife and I are at work or not home he barks intensely. Sometimes going on for hours without stopping. My neighbors have told me they can hear him. I'm not sure how he doesn't lose his voice!
We have tried the sonic egg, rescue remedy drops, leaving him uncreated with the entire place open for himself, leaving old clothes for scent, leaving tv on, and leaving radio on. Yet he still barks. Neighbors have said he has breaking periods between barking now it's not as bad but it's still a lot!
When my wife and I are home, if either of us have to use the bathroom he needs to follow you in and watch you go. If you take a shower, he will peek his head under the curtain and watch you until your finished. He even jumps on top of the shower ceramic lip that you have to step over to enter the shower. When you put him down, he jumps right back up, sometimes falling into the shower with you! Your probably wondering why we just dont shut the door and don't let him in the bathroom. Why, because he scratches at the door and cries until you let him in!
Has anyone had a dog with that bad of separation anxiety? If so any suggestions?? He's wen afraid of people he doesn't know coming into the house, or trying to pet him in public, even if we are holding him!
HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!
