Are digging and chewing a sign of anxiety?
Digging And Chewing
Digging and chewing are often signs of a dog that is not receiving attention or exercise and is suffering from boredom. Whether or not the dog is suffering from separation anxiety may depend on if the dog is simply expending excess energy or literally attempting to dig and chew his way out of the house. Dogs that suffer from separation anxiety have been known to attempt escape through any means in an attempt to reach out to their owners.
