What is separation anxiety?
Dogs with separation anxiety have a phobia of being left alone, and are experiencing real panic attacks when separated.
It’s important to note that these behaviors are rooted in panic, not resentment. Your dog is not house-soiling or chewing the doors to get back at you for leaving!
Here's the plan:
Your treatment plan is based on sound scientific principles, with methods proven to be very effective in resolving separation anxiety. Your expert trainer will be with you every step of the way!

Behavior Assessment

Training Plans
Four days per week, you'll receive customized training plans to work through. Each day consists of 20 - 30 minutes of simple, positive practice. After each day, your trainer will check to see how your dog did, provide feedback and support, and create the next day's plan!

Weekly Check-Ins
