Rescue dog gets a little antsy when we leave
Hi all. My family rescued a Great Pyrenees mix a few days ago. She's a very sweet dog but has obviously not been trained so I've started working on that. She's getting better, but the one thing I'm not sure how to handle is how she acts when we leave.
Basically, once we leave you can hear her frantically scratch at the door. It doesn't last THAT long but she's a good sized dog with decent size claws. We haven't started crate training but we're thinking about that as well (for multiple reasons). I have a few questions:
Any potential solutions for the door scratching?
Is this something that crate training could potentially 'solve?'
Thanks all!!
