How long does separation anxiety therapy take?
Treatment duration is individual and depends on the severity of the problem and consistency of work. First improvements can be seen after a few weeks of consistent work, but full therapy may take 2-6 months.
Can separation anxiety be cured?
Yes, separation anxiety can be effectively treated. The key is proper diagnosis, action plan, and consistent work with your dog. Our specialists will help select the best treatment methods for your dog.
Can I work with my dog independently?
While there are methods for independent work, professional support significantly increases therapy effectiveness and helps avoid mistakes that could worsen the problem. A behaviorist will help select appropriate techniques and monitor progress.
What happens during the first consultation?
The first consultation begins with a thorough interview and analysis of your dog's behavior. Then the specialist presents an action plan and initial recommendations. The consultation lasts about 60-90 minutes and can be conducted online or in person.
Do I need a veterinary referral?
A referral is not required, but we recommend a prior veterinary consultation to rule out health issues that may affect your dog's behavior.
Don't wait for the problem to get worse
Separation anxiety rarely resolves on its own. The sooner you start working with your dog, the faster you'll see positive changes in their behavior.
