I have exciting news- Ebno is starting puppy classes! Our first class/orientation was on Sunday (March 5th). He is taking a basic education class that uses positive re-enforcement techniques (he sure loves treats and praise!). I am very excited to be starting and our instructor Brittany is great!
Ebno is a smart little guy and has picked up on the commands we have taught him at home, but I feel he will benefit from the group environment. Also, he has a serious case of separation anxiety so hopefully this will give him the confidence he needs to feel more secure when we are away. No matter what I think this will be a great experience for him. Wish him luck!
If anyone out there has advice on how to ease separation anxiety I would love to hear it. I have tried moving/changing the crate we use, playing music, not playing music, etc. I have even started trying mild sedation and nothing seems to help. I always come home to a crate covered in drool and it makes me sad to think of how stressful this must be on him. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
