I don't believe dogs sit at home plotting against their owners and if that's how I made it sounds, it wasn't what I meant. Morgan came to use with an awful case of seperation anxiety. It was so bad you couldn't leave her alone in a room. She'd destroy things, make a mess on the floor, this is why her first couple of months with us were always in her kennel if she was alone. We approached the vet after one fateful afternoon she dragged a 10 pound bag of flour into the livingroom and masacred it Her gave us lots of advice and told us about medication but wanted us to try all we could before we went that way. Slowly Morgan improved, we bought her a new kennel, we felt the old one carried to many bad memories for her. And I think we were right, she'll go into her new one by choice not force. We left her alone for a minute, two, three and now a few hours. More often then not we come home to find a happy puppy and a clean house, but once in a while we still find a present at the back door. So we know she's not quite cured yet, but getting there.
