<DIV>My Lexi is 7, and she has always been ok with me leaving the house. I put her in my kitchen, with a baby gate, and she has her bed in there. Lately, well, the last few months I have noticed when I am getting ready to leave the house, she starts trembling. I noticed last winter when I would let her in, she was trembling a little, and thought she was just cold.. but now I leave, anytime, she starts shaking. I have had blood work done (because of her anal gland issues), so I dont think its anything physical. A co worker suggested giving her a treat when I leave. Has anyone had a "shaky" <STRONG>Basset when they leave their home? I feel so guilty, its just her and me, and I do spend every evening at home with her, and take her to the dog park.</STRONG><BR> </DIV>
