dog anxiety Archives - Ask A Pet Pro

Since I got my dog from the pound around the day he was gonna be put down , he has high anxiety in car rides to unfamiliar places some people recommend liquid Benadryl to make him dopey. Is there any other way I can help him with his anxiety?

Thanks.

I have a chihuahua and poodle mix who is very fear aggressive, over protective and has horrible separation anxiety. She is 6 yrs old non spade, ball of energy. Is she to old to learn new behavior?  –Venus

How do I help an anxiety ridden dog? My dog has terrible anxiety issues.  I will see the vet on the 24th to talk about it.  What are some healthy ways to help her that I can do at home?  I hate to see her go on medication.

Thank youRose

My dog refuses to eat  or drink even though he has fresh food and cold water, until someone gets home. Is this a kind of separation anxiety?  He eats like we’ve been starving him when we get home.

Thank you.

Hello,

I leave my dog in the laundry room when I am gone at work.

In the last few months, she has gotten more and more destructive. My dog always scratched the door a bit, but now it is ruined and she’s chewing on the trim round the door.  I’ve tried a few things but nothing really helps.

My neighbor says she might have separation anxiety.

Can you help?

Thank You – Kay
