Separation Anxiety: Understanding the Fear Behind the Behaviour
Update: 2025-04-29
Description
Separation anxiety isn’t bad behaviour - it’s an emotional struggle. In this episode, Deb from Busy Pawz breaks down what’s really going on when your dog panics at being left alone, how our own emotions can fuel their worry, and why fixing it is about calmness, confidence, and baby steps (not blame).
Deb also chats about why some breeds might be more prone to separation struggles, how Covid has changed the game for young dogs, and when medication might be a helpful bridge - not a quick fix.
Because helping a dog feel safe being alone is possible - with a little understanding, patience, and the right support.
