Hi, Sierra is doing just fine with my husband going back to work, which has been over a week. Her and Dakota have been alone for 8 hours a day for almost 2...
Hi Nancy, I'm glad to hear that Sierra is doing okay alone with her buddy Sierra. So sorry to hear about the eye problems. Kinda freaky that both dogs have a...
The vet said the opthamologist would be pretty pricey and all it would do is tell me what is actually wrong. He said they would not do surgery until it...
Sorry Nancy I don't know where you can get Clomicalm cheap. I'm sure the human drug, Anafranil, the Clomicalm equivalent is probably cheaper, but then you...
Nancy, Your vet can write you a prescription for clomipramine, which is the human version of clomicalm. Then try Sam's Club or other discount pharmacies. I ...
My vet gives me clomipramine (sp?). It is the generic of Clomicalm, and works the same, and is cheaper. You might want to ask your vet if there is a way to...
Hello all, A trainer I'm working with referred me to this group today. I've just been skimming through the archives...In fact, I may spend the rest of the...
Hello, This is my second time posting about Sissy my dog. She had serious drooling and whining and barking when we'd leave. She also destroyed 2 crates while...
Hi and welcome to the group, I just have one question, if she is crate trained, why don't you leave her in the crate when you leave? I know first time dog...

Sorry for what I wrote earlier!! Maybe I am jealous, I wish I was just dealing with howling...instead of the insanity I deal with in my own dog. My hubby...
Hi Nancy and thanks for your thoughts. ... when you leave? > We are working on duration in the crate. The main problem is that should would have to be crated...
Nancy, I must disagree with you. There are different degrees of separation anxiety. Not all dogs with separation anxiety will destroy a house and/or...
... Well yes, but there is a difference. Tigger also probably part pit is in his own way the most demonstrably affectionate and smartest dog I ever had. ...
Nancy, We've been there. I sometimes find myself looking at posts going, "That's it? How difficult is that?" But, a crazy dog is a crazy dog, and some are ...
It certainly does sound like your dog has a very severe case of separation anxiety. Its hard not to give up and lose hope when the situation is so severe....
Thank you Rebecca for the understanding note!! I think just the idea of spending all the money and then having the chance that it will happen again was...
Nancy, Good luck with crate training. We've had little, to no, success with it. The behaviorist thinks its, "unrealistic to think Gus will ever be crate ...
My sentiments exactly. Frodo gets all of the good drugs, and all I get is 2 hours out of my house (that's the maximum time Frodo lets me leave), and a good...
... Why do you "make her lead"? Which I assume means have her walk in front? The one in front takes on the burden of responsibility for those behind. Imagine ...
... Rebecca, you may have already answered this and I missed it. Where is Gus's 'Privacy Place'? That is the place where he likes to go on his own? Does he ...
Doug, Gus has no privacy place, nor does he seem to desire one. For a while, he really liked the guest room, but then he ate the comforter, pillows, and ...
Hi Jean Ms. Sierra is on Clomicalm, which has done wonders. I was able to crate train her after we put her on the Clomicalm right around Christmas. So the...
LOL, for sure!! The key to crate training for me....was meat market bones......go to a meat market and they will have some packages labeled dog bones. She got...
Girlfriend....you are a first time dog owner for sure (LOL!!) Just joking!! But 4 hours in a crate ain't nothing!! For duration...once you get your dog up...
For those of you looking for long lasting tasty treats, I just remembered... Gus does have one that he likes. It's a pre-stuffed cheese filled bone that I got...
I get your point. But I live in the city so Xena walks in front or next to me. If I lived in the county she could walk behind me. We walk about 1-3 miles...
What was the name of the crate? Do you know where anyone can get one? Dolly ... _________________________________________________________________ Watch LIVE...
