Dog separation anxiety, more aptly termed as separation distress or panic is real. It can happen not only when you go on vacation but also when you need to leave them in general. It is a relatively common behavioural disorder, and it is a lot more than just getting bored. In some cases, it can be debilitating to the lives of these wonderful pets and their humans. In Australian society, dog separation anxiety is also a contributing factor that pet owners relinquish their dogs. Dogs with this illness may react differently. Avoid giving kisses and hugs before leaving because it feeds their separation anxiety.
