One of the reasons we have pets in our lives is for their companionship. The bond with canines has strengthened over the thousands of years that they have cohabitated with us…from the fringes of our human encampments to now sharing our beds.

But with this bonding some issues have arisen. Call them what you may, my little shadow, super loyal dogs, Velcro dogs…these are pets that may be suffering with separation anxiety. How do you know if your dog is affected? What can you do to prevent it from happening and if your dog is suffering from separation anxiety panic attacks when you are not around, what can be done to relieve the angst?

Dr. Sharon Campbell, medical lead for veterinary specialty operations for Zoetis is my guest today. We will be chatting about building confidence in your dog with love, patience and medication where appropriate.
