For those of you with beagles that suffer from SA, are you medicating him/her? Why, or why not? What, if anything, worked for you?
I had a thread on this awhile back, and at that time, Gage seemed to be getting better, but now he's worse. If anyone leaves the house, he barks, yelps, runs and salivates. He even gets upset if he's in the car with us, and one person gets out (even if he can still see the other person). We can even hear him crying in the house while we're in the driveway. He's happy to go somewhere with one person and leave others behind, or to be left behind outside by himself, but gets upset when left in a crate, or free in the house.
He's not loud enough to bother the neighbors, so that's not a problem, but I do wonder if he'd be better off with some medication. It would be a last resort though. I'd rather not do it, but it can't be good for him to get so upset.
