Description
Separation anxiety in dogs and its associated behaviours have a significant role in surrender and euthanasia rates. The more separation anxiety is studied, the closer we come to solving this behavioural problem and the closer we come to giving dogs their best possible life. This is a kid’s picture for an audience aged 8 and older. It’s designed to help explain separation anxiety without excess jargon.
