Is my dog's separation anxiety plan for alone time with a thunder vest good?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Siberian Husky | Male | neutered | 3 years and 8 months old | 61 lbs

Does this seem reasonable for a separation anxiety plan? Anything I should add or make less time or anything. Thank you. Using with thunder spray with a vest to condition them to alone time. I have someone at home only for errands we have to leave them alone. They for three hours just sleep or chew bones took about a month to get there.

Yes, I think this sounds very reasonable. You are doing a great job! Most people don't have the patience to do the training and just want a quick fix in the form of a pill. I applaud you! Just keep doing what you are doing with gradually increasing the time you are away as you have outlined in the plan. Awesome job! Best wishes!
