Separation Anxiety Training

Stop the barking, howling, frantic running,
peeing, destruction, and injuries.

Let's give you your life back. No more guilt or worry over leaving your dog home alone.

Having lived with a dog who suffers from separation anxiety, I understand how painful this phobia can be for pups and people alike. I've worried about how Emma's barking and howling would bother our condo neighbors. I've had to replace rugs and couches after Emma lost her bladder on them so many times that they were destroyed. I've had to pay for door frames to be repaired after Emma tried to chew her way out.

And most importantly, I've worried about how much my beautiful girl suffered when she was left home alone. I've suffered through my own guilt every time I left home.

So I get it. Separation anxiety can be brutal. But it's also treatable.

Before we started training, Emma would become terrified if she was left alone for just 10 seconds. Today, Emma is so relaxed when we leave her, that after the door closes, she finds a comfy spot and snoozes for hours. (See before-and-after images below.) Using the scientific method of "systematic desensitization," I have taught Emma that there is nothing to fear.

I'd love to help you do the same for your pup.

Remote Training

The great news is that I can work with you no matter where in the world you live. If I were to come into your home to train your pup, I wouldn't get to see the dog in his or her natural environment. Instead, I use programs such as Zoom, Skype, and Google Sheets, to see what a normal absence looks like and share information. (Don't worry if you're not very tech-savvy. I'll help make it easy for you.)
