A PhD veterinarian says the barking, the destroyed furniture, the scratched doors... these aren't behavior problems.
They're afraid. Your dog thinks you're never coming back.
So they bark for hours trying to call you back. They claw at doors to escape. They destroy everything because their body is flooded with panic.
Your dog isn't being bad. They're terrified. And until you fix the fear... the barking and destruction won't stop.
