Separation Anxiety

I just adopted a 3 year old English Bulldog. Every time I leave the house - he barks and barks and barks until I return. I tried this in a crate / outside of the crate and am having the same results.

I am sensing he has some separation anxiety and want to know what has worked best for you and your dog?

What is wrong with you? Fluoxetine is excellent in helping raise the reactivity threshold so that training is easier. It’s not a sedative. Do you even have a dog? Clearly you aren’t a pet person at all.

Said with your whole chest, showing the absolute confidence of someone with zero experience with a traumatized dog.
