nice looking dog...trying to decide between getting a rottie or a doberman...btw did you ever take care of her separation anxiety and if so how do you take care of it?

I see that this video is from 3 years ago and am curious if you've had any success with the SA issues Stella has. I am a trainer/behavior consultant and also the momma of a former severe SA case. I see more a case of slight anxiety over the absence of a pack member more than an actual case of SA in this particular video and am curious to hear how things have gone since.

@illnacordThis article could be very helpful: dogbreedinfo (dot) com /separationanziety (dothtm)It explains why:1. The number one cause of separation anxiety is a human’s lack of leadership.2. Separation anxiety can also be due to a lack of exercise.Please read the entire article, and I hope it helps. Whatever you do, don't give up on your dog. I wish you, and your cute dog the best.

@avetis31: Thanks for the tip. Here's the thing about dogs, they're like humans in that each is unique. In this sense, Stella has been trained to know when I go when I give her a treat BEFORE I go. She then knows its time to watch the house grounds and not wait by the door whining, etc. Each dog is different but through experience and the tips throughout the comments from dobie owners, communication must be introduced to the dog so they know you are not coming back for an extended time.

1 thing you should do to help this is, when you come back, give the dog a treat...

My dobie has separation issues as well. He's a rescue from an abuse situation, so I guess it's not unexpected. But instead of whining he barks incessantly, and loudly, for hours and paces until I get home. If it's long enough, he'll calm down eventually and sleep, or if someone is there to keep him occupied he'll be okay.

DOBERMAN ARE SO MUCH LOYAL AS AFFECTIVE TOWARDS THEIR MASTER. THEY'RE SWEET CHILDREN AND FAITHFULL AND BRAVE ADULT AT THE SAME TIME. |
