Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | neutered | 27 years and 8 months old | 57 lbs
I adopted an older rescue almost 6 months ago. He really struggles with anxiety, especially separation anxiety when I leave. He also is struggling at nighttime if I'm not home, he'll bark and scratch at doors and really has a hard time. Is there anything you suggest that may help ease his anxiety and let him have more of a peace of mind when I'm not home?

Here are some links with great information. I recommend to speak with his veterinarian to see if Maverick would benefit from medication (short term or long term). https://www.petcoach.co/article/separation-anxiety/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/7-natural-treatments-for-dog-anxiety/ I hope this helps.
