> Our oldest dog, now thirteen , about 85 pounds, and fighting cancer, very well I may add, has always had trouble with storms. She tries to get behind anything she can - tables, the TV, the pc, the trash. Then she'll crawl into the fireplace, the bathtub, etc., etc.
Now she also has separation anxiety. We're going to try Melatonin first, because she's already on medication for the cancer, but something similar to Prozac will follow quickly if this is not a cure, because it is wrecking our sleep. We don't want a modified Manny, just a kindler, gentler, cleaner, sleepier Manny.
You have my sympathies, akc. It is a very frustrating thing to deal with. I hope your behaviorist can help out.
