Syllabus
This course has several lessons, each with a progress exam and most with supplemental learning materials, such as videos, illustrations, and/or downloadables.
In this lesson, we’ll cover what separation anxiety is, what causes it, and what the signs are that your dog may be experiencing it, including both behavioral and physical symptoms.
Here, we offer detailed breakdowns of techniques, routines, and tips to help prevent separation anxiety, lessen its symptoms, or reverse the condition. We also explore alternative treatments for more severe cases that do not respond well to standard techniques.
Who this course is for
Anyone who will be changing their routine and leaving their dog home alone more often, as well as those whose dogs appear to be showing signs of separation anxiety.
