If you missed out the first time, this is your opportunity to watch the “Dog Training Secrets Summit” relaunch! I’ll be talking about separation anxiety in dogs (what else? 😅) on October 23rd. ❤️

How do you feel the first day after you have made a big change to your routine or lifestyle? Do you feel like it’s easy to keep up with it? Do you feel overwhelmed? And then, what does the following week or month look like? Do you stay consistent? Does it feel easy everyday or do some days feel easier than others?

And the biggest question, how does this relate to separation anxiety training and behavior medication?

Slide to read more about my thoughts and reflections about it after observing dogs overcome SA over the years.

With love, Moira 💞

Yes, you can treat separation anxiety in dogs! In my part two podcast interview with Dr. Moira Hechenleitner, DVM, CSAT, of Separation Anxiety Dog, we talk about what that treatment looks like. It is an important listen for anyone who has a dog suffering from this.

In Episode 5 of my Lives Touched By Pets Podcast, you will learn, there IS hope!

What do predictability and variability mean in the context of dog training, dog behavior, and separation anxiety? And why are they important?

Predictability allows us to know what to expect. Its soothing nature grounds us, moving us from a state of alert to one of calmness.

Variability takes us out of our comfort zone. Its unexpected nature brings stress but allows us to grow stronger, and more adaptable.

Only by balancing both we can thrive. Separation Anxiety dogs are no different.

But how to choose the right amount of each? It will depend on each dog.

Aside from training, most will initially benefit from a good amount of predictability to feel safe, progressively sprinkled by variability to get stronger.

In SA training, it will vary from dog to dog and depending on the stage. There isn’t a perfect recipe for all!

From varying everything between sessions or repeating the same session everyday, to halfway in between, finding that sweet balance by objectively observing each dog’s response and trend will take you there. And will help the dog heal.

All dogs can tell time, but SA dogs who thrive from a more predictable setup really care about numbers and about what to expect when facing SA training!

Remi is one of them, so we have been successfully implementing a predictable training approach rather than the usual variable training schedule. We are now entering the stage in which we reverse back to variable so she gently adapts to not knowing what to expect in terms of each day’s absence duration and is able to be ok with it.

At this stage we are working with an absence duration baseline of 15 minutes that we repeat almost everyday with the exception of a “sprinkle up” of 25 minutes and a “sprinkle down” of 8 minutes once a week. Check in the picture the timing in which she made moves during this particular absence. 😅

This is so helpful and validating to see, because we can navigate any displaying of restlessness or discomfort happening at those times with a different mindset, and carefully push the edges of discomfort to help them grow within safe margins. This provides us with context so we can potentially allow mild expressions of discomfort (the good kind of discomfort, the one that helps us grow), as long as the day to day trend continues to move in the right direction, validating and supporting our decision making.

To be able to comfortably allow the above, it is key to have worked with the dog long enough to know that the foundation is solid, and that they are ready to safely handle being slightly pushed out of their comfort zone.

I think I’ll record a short video in the next few days to talk more about predictability versus variability, how they intertwine, and how they can be strategically applied to helping SA dogs through training.
