How do I deal with my new puppy's separation anxiety?
I just got a new puppy. Whenever I leave for work, she cries and whines excessively and loudly. I live in an apartment building so I dont want her to be crying all day, and also I don't want her to be sad all day. What are some techniques I can do to get her used to being left alone?
At the moment your pup thinks that crying and barking gets them out or attention, which it does, which in turn means they can dictate when you get up and of course they want you with them your pup loves you!
So you have to ignore which is a process call extinction. What that means is you will have to endure an extinction burst (behaviour will get worse before it gets better) so the pup will be whining pretty loudly for a night or two before it goes away.
