Anxious french bulldog

[Kemp]

Hi can anyone help, I have a 2 year old frenchie amazing dog only had 7 months but really hates being left alone. We are his 3rd home not through him, first was from puppy, second brought as companion for another dog, didn work out now us. His nature is amazng loves being with you just not on his own. I know it may take time but anything that could help i just wish he'd understsnd he is not going anyway and we will always come back. Even at night he will sleep the night until about 4am to 5am then start howling and even mess in my kitchen also howls when we go out in day. Anyone used anything that actually helps. Thanks

Separation anxiety is a behaviour that a lot of dogs display. I recommend you access Emma Judson's "The Flitting Game" for lots of very helpful tips. We might have a pinned thread on this as well, if you have a look around the site.

With the early howling - maybe he needs to go out. How about you take him out, then settle him back with a dog biscuit? Or maybe he could sleep in your room in a crate.
