How to help a dog with anxiety

Anxiety, particularly separation anxiety, is very common in dogs. While every case is different, treatment involves helping to reduce your dog's overall anxiety levels through distraction, pheremones, medications and/or supplements while also desensitising them to the trigger. For best results, consult a qualified dog trainer who specialises in positive reinforcement techniques to help develop strategies to address your dog's anxiety and any problem behaviours associated with it.
