I owned two fennec foxes with my 5 year old labrador but somehow they r different. Compared to dogs they are more agile but 'colder'. But, my Labrador somehow act as a nanny to them...thanks Farra I’ve been a dog lover for sometime until I sorta like evolved into exotic pets.

A tired dog is a good dog! A dog can sleep most of the day if he's tired enough. Most young dogs could use 20-100 minutes of full-speed running per day. Increase your dog's exercise. Don't forget mental exercise, like training, exploring new places, encountering new smells, and social interaction with other dogs. Taking your dog to a park where he can run and play with others may be crucial. Give your dog more exercise. A tired dog is a good dog! A dog can sleep most of the day if he’s tired enough.

They get especially worried when we bring any suitcases or overnight bags to the door. I have a feeling that these dog training techniques just wouldn't work on cats. Still, I will keep these tips in mind as we plan to get a dog soon. My cats actually respond quite similarly when we leave.

It actually seems to have worked - when I take off my coat and resume what I was doing, I don't talk to or touch my dog until I know he has calmed down.

I have done many of the things you suggest, like picking up the keys throughout the day, and she has gotten better. She doesn't start "singing" as soon as we walk out the door like she used to, but sometimes she is when we get back home. I guess we still have a little more work to do.

I use to work from home a lot and the tough economic times have forced me to seek regular employment. My dog was use to seeing me at home but now I was leaving for longer periods of time and I noticed her anxiety level is up quite a bit. She hasn't picked up any destructive habits but she definitely seems more clingy than before. The desensitization exercise you described regarding going through the routine of leaving the house (put on coat and take keys) but not actually going through with it seems that the dog is being taunted and not calmed.
