Why is my dog suddenly scared of bedtime and anxious when left alone?

Hi, my dog has suddenly become scared of bed times, he doesn’t want to go in the kitchen and when he finally goes in and the lights get turned off he wines, drools and chews and bangs on the baby gate.

It sounds like he is experiencing some separation anxiety when left in the kitchen. You could try an Adaptil collar and Solliquin chews and see if that helps. Also, you could give him a Kong stuffed with treats or a puzzle toy to keep him busy for a few minutes after putting him in the kitchen. https://www.adaptil.com/us#redirected http://www.solliquin.com/
