It's Agonizing for All Involved
No other behavioral issue has the household impact that canine separation anxiety has. Clients often feel trapped, a prisoner in their own home — or guilty knowing their dog is suffering when they do venture out.
Separation Anxiety Basics:
The Signs Are Unmistakable
Typical symptoms of canine separation anxiety include constant barking, whining, pacing, sweating, drooling, pawing or scratching, inappropriate elimination, destruction, attempts to escape and self-mutilation when left alone.
Happily, It Is Fixable
It’s estimated that 1 in 5 dogs in the U.S. suffer from some form of separation anxiety. The very good news is when treated with a proper program of gradual desensitization, more than 73% of dogs improve significantly or completely.
You Get Immediate Relief
From the beginning of the program, there will be an end to your dog’s distress, your neighbor’s complaints and even your landlord’s eviction warnings. This peace of mind frees you to focus on creating lasting change.
And Long-Term Results
It can take time to fix canine separation anxiety. And while the work is straightforward, it isn’t necessarily easy. It requires patience and commitment. But the resulting freedom for both you and your dog is real and lasting.
Available to Clients Anywhere
Common, easy-to-use technology like Skype is a critical tool in the treatment program — and it also makes it possible to work with clients across the country or around the world without any compromise of progress at all.
WHAT THEY ARE SAYING
TESTIMONIALS
We didn’t know how to help Jake, so we just stayed home. We used daycare for when we were at work, but at night we wouldn’t leave the house. We were prisoners. We loved Jake and it was painful to think we could give up on him, but we were at the end of our rope. And it was starting to affect our relationship, too. We had no hope, but our daycare manager said she knew a trainer who could help us and put us in touch with Jennifer. Treating Jake’s separation anxiety wasn’t easy, and it took six months. But there was a night where we were able to actually go out to dinner together leaving Jake at home, and we realized it was the first time we had done that in five years. Thank you, Jennifer!

We can't thank Jennifer enough for teaching all of us how to live together peacefully and happily. She is a wonderful, warm and patient teacher. Living with a dog with separation anxiety is a very stressful situation, but from the beginning she reduced the stress and focused us on fixing the problem. It wasn't easy, but it all made sense and we could see the improvement. The best part was watching Max's old video and seeing how far he'd come. We are forever grateful to her.

Jennifer, thank you for everything! Gertie is so much more confident and sparky, and we really feel like we understand her and can read her better than we ever could before. We will continue your good work and everything we've learned along the way. We always felt she was special, but you’ve helped develop her into an even lovelier dog! Thank you!

This is a review of a consultation I had with Jennifer a year and a half ago for my dog Norman, who was having trouble adjusting to life in the city. I am very happy to report that Norman has become a true NYC dog — he LOVES Central Park, I'm able to let him off the leash in the mornings, and he runs miles and miles and miles but always comes back to me. He still hates the dog runs, they totally freak him out. But Jennifer explained that not all adult dogs like being around other dogs, it's perfectly normal and there's no reason to force it. Her initial consult was a huge help.

DON’T PUT IT OFF ANY LONGER
Separation anxiety will not get better on its own. The sooner you address it, the sooner you will reclaim the freedom, the peace of mind and the relationship with your dog you once had.
