come in, we turn on the TV (he likes<BR>Nickelodeon and CNN) and start
ignoring Humphrey. 15 minutes before "go<BR>time" we give him a big rawhide or
a bone filled with frozen peanut butter<BR>so that he's engaged with that way
ahead of our leaving. The most important<BR>thing we learned in trying to curb
Hum's separation anxiety, though, is that<BR>he's big on routine. Every day,
for months, we would make him sit, stay, and<BR>then we'd leave the apartment
for increasing intervals - first 10 seconds,<BR>then 30, etc, up to half an
hour. It took a LONG time to get up to half an<BR>hour, but once we hit that
threshold, we were immediately able to increase<BR>our abscene and can now go
out to dinner, to a movie,
etc.<BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV></FONT><BR><BR><BR><DIV><FONT style="color: black; font: normal 10pt ARIAL, SAN-SERIF;"><HR style="MARGIN-TOP: 10px">Psssst...Have you heard the news? <A title="http://www.stylelist.com/trends?ncid=aolsty00050000000014" href="http://www.stylelist.com/trends?ncid=aolsty00050000000014" target="_blank">There's a new fashion blog, plus the latest fall trends and hair styles at StyleList.com</A>.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
