Akita with severe separation anxiety? Akita owners please help.?

Its nothing really specific about Akita's but one thing I've found has really helped with my lab is to just be ignore the dog for a few minutes (at least) before shutting her away, then when I let her back out don't give her any affection when you let her back out. It just says to the dog that when we spend time apart its no big deal. At first you might want to try ignoring her for as long as an hour, but in time you can bring this down and hopefully go a long way to helping your dog. Also its certainly worth mentioning to your vet!
