maria Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 This is about a year ago when I started to trust her after we had had her for a year. She now goes back in a locked crate when we are gone. We love her but she can be quite the little stinker!! This was after I walked in the door and saw just a little bit of stuffing on the living room floor and I immediately knew what was waiting for me in the bedroom! Then she tore apart her deluxe crate cushion and now she just has old blankets in her crate. She is fine when we are at home, so I guess it is all separation anxiety. Someday I dream of a dog I can leave outside the crate with her older sister when we are gone. thanks for looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3greytjoys Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 But... at least she's adorable! I feel your pain. The act of chewing helps dogs relieve anxiety. Have you ever tried muzzling with Greyhound turnout muzzles in lieu of crating? That could allow her more space to move around during the day. A baby-gate makes it easier to dog-proof a room.

BatterseaBrindl Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Agree... Try muzzling her! Quote Nancy...Mom to Sid (Peteles Tiger), Kibo (112 Carlota Galgos) and Joshi.
