Looking for some advice. We have a 9 month old English cream golden, Mabel that we got end of December from a family friend. I don't have a lot of background on the first 6 months of her life. We also have a 1 1/2 year old golden/ great pyr. My husband and I also have a 4 year old son. Mabel is extremely anxious and we're dealing with some issues. I am feeling that she is fearful of my husband and any guests we have over the house. We have a fenced in yard and if she goes outside, she will stand at the door nervous to come back inside unless I am home. I work from home so I think she is most comfortable with me. She is also very anxious when left home alone, started to demonstrate separation anxiety (barking nonstop if crated, pacing if outside the crate). Looking for advice on how to handle these concerns before they get worse. I don't want to put her on medication but her anxiety for such a young age is concerning. I can't always be home so how does my husband overcome getting her into the house?
