Post-Lockdown Separation Anxiety in our Dogs
If COVID-19 has had a silver lining, it’s been getting to spend more time with our pets. Dogs all over the world have enjoyed snuggling into laps while their humans held video conferences and worked away on the phone or computer. Frequent walks and one-on-one time has become the new norm, and we’ve all loved it. But a topic of discussion amongst vets at the moment is whether we’ll see an increase in separation anxiety in our dogs as work restrictions are eased?
Separation Anxiety
There are many reasons why dogs display problem behaviours when they are left alone. Boredom can be a common factor or it can often be a training issue. For some dogs it is due to the animal not being able to cope normally with separation from their owner.
