What readers say
1,000+ five-star reviews.
I recently adopted a dog who gets extremely anxious when she’s left alone. The advice I initially collected on Google backfired and made her anxiety worse. Julie’s method involves carefully observing your dog, steady desensitization through incremental steps, and working within their stress thresholds. Highly recommended!
I adopted a dog with severe separation anxiety and tried everything: supplements, different training methods, other books. It wasn’t until we switched to Julie’s method that we FINALLY saw improvement. This book changed my dog’s life.
Julie clearly puts everything in perspective. She gives a detailed, easy step-by-step process that helped me understand that some of the decisions I made did not contribute to the situation. I wish I had this information when my dog first started exhibiting signs of separation anxiety.
Julie is the person to go to for dogs with separation anxiety
Easy to read and follow. Informed training to help your dog overcome this response to trauma. Step by step. You can even get help in her Facebook group. Or track your progress in an additional book. I highly recommend.

Excellent Ideas for Success
Think of training for a marathon. That’s what curing separation anxiety successfully looks like. Be patient, know you’re in it for the longer haul but it will all be worthwhile. Extremely tiny steps in the beginning lead to huge improvements in the end.
