Just because you have a senior dog doesn't mean they can't learn to feel safe when you leave them. There may be a number of reasons why your dog doesn't feel good about your absence and in this episode Ness explores the first steps on how to address this.
It's easy to assign human behaviors on to dogs and many guardians have accused their dogs of taking revenge on them (ie by destroying belongings or soiling in the home) for leaving them behind.
In this episode, Ness explores why that is simply not the case and explains that your dog is experiencing extreme stress, and in some cases panic, about your absence.
