If the whole family is headed out and leaving the dog behind – there are a few things you can do to make the separation a little easier for your best friend:
• Give them some good hard exercise before you go.
• Put away the food bowl and consider a food toy to keep them interested for longer. Don’t have a food toy? Consider scattering some dry food around to give them something to hunt for.
• Leave some noise on for your dog. A television with voices talking is a good choice – or there’s always the radio.
• Avoid making a big production out of your departure – the more subtle your exit – the less stressful it is for the dog.
