Abstract
A range of separation-related behaviour problems may occur in the partial or complete absence of a pet’s owner. These problems can have different underlying motivations, relating to factors such as fear, anxiety, over-attachment and lack of appropriate stimulation, and require different treatment interventions. The chapter deals with evaluation of the patient, differential diagnosis, treatment of separation-related behaviour problems, prognosis, follow-up, prevention of the problem.
