Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is likely due to separation anxiety. For when you go out, you could consider using the thunder shirt which can help tremendously to decrease anxiety. There are of course medications that can also be used but this would be a good place to start with Dakato. You can use it as needed. You can find it online. Good luck and have a great day!
