Hi everyone,
hoping I can get some help here. We have a 9 month old female Siberian husky. She gets plenty of exercise with walks, runs, play time and I even get her to do the treadmill most days. She has no issue going to bed in her crate and sleeps through the night. When she gets in trouble it's her safe spot she always runs to but for some reason if we crate her during the day and leave the room for more than 5-10 minutes she starts to panic and tries breaking out of the crate. We have put kongs with treats in them for her, as well as other toys but she usually will ignore them because she's too busy trying to break out. She has destroyed one wire crate already and we are worried she may hurt herself if we leave the house for a few hours.
The radio and tv do not work either. How can I train her to calm down. I know it is separation anxiety but not sure what we can do differently.
