Ive read a few things on here about puppies that whine when their owners leave.. however my dog is two and a half years old. hes a chihuahua. I know his behavior is my fault. I babied him and he was always with me and such. Now Im at a point where I just cant be with him all the time and I dont know how to get him to stop. When I leave he whines and scratches at the door. Even if I leave him with people he sits at the door and whines and when hes told to lay down he goes to his bed and continues to whine. Whats the best way to get him to stop.
