Didn't see any threads about this thus far (though there are 100+ pages of threads there may be something), I just recently adopted my first dog, I've grown up with dogs, but this is MY first dog... any way.
I adopted him on Friday, got him home to find out he's already potty trained and really well behaved, until my boyfriend and I left him home for the first time (with my mother as puppy sitter) he looked around for us for the entire length of time we were gone crying as if he had been abandoned.
He looks like he's about a year old, and was a stray picked up by our local animal shelter. Judging by the potty training we're guessing he was left on the street after some training.
We have two other dogs in the house so he's never completely alone.
Does anyone have any idea or suggestions for breaking this behavior? Should we give it more time?
Thanks!
