If your dog is your shadow, you’re not alone. Many dogs follow their owners around the house out of affection, habit, or curiosity. It can also be a sign of separation anxiety, especially if they get stressed when you’re out of sight. To help your dog feel more confident on their own, start by giving them short moments of alone time with something positive, like a chew or puzzle toy. Gradually increase the time apart, and always make sure they feel safe and secure.
