Anyone have luck with their senior rescue dog and lessening their separation anxiety? Mine is 8 yo and is so anxious that he forgoes treats/food/water and whines from the moment i leave to the moment i return. I ve begun clicker training him w treats and trying to de condition him to keys and me picking up bags and walking out the door but he can only stand one to three minutes max before freaking out. Even if i mop on the other end of the door he freaks and wants to be in the same room.
