For some dogs, like pound puppies, it can take even longer because of kennel cough and the trauma of being in doggy jail for months. Here are some ways to help your dog deal with your time away from home. They will feel better as time goes by. 1.

Leave a radio on to help pass to bed and place that shirt on their day bed in the morning. It will help them feel your presence and can help calm them down as they nap. 4.
