Mean latency to distress vocalisation is 3.25 minutes; 7.13 to destruction. “He settles after a while” is the assumption this takes apart.

You get more than a PDF:

• The guide — 46 pages, nine sourced lessons: panic versus spite, the four conditions mistaken for separation anxiety, the threshold and how to protect it, the training absence from one second up, crates and bark collars, medication, plateaus.

• The full audiobook — nine narrated chapters, for the walk you already take.

• The Absence Ladder spreadsheet — your threshold, your weeks, your coverage cost.

• The Home Alone community — Discord and chat, where owners post their own footage and the week they are having, and get answered.

Work it slowly and you are inside the published range: many dogs reach real improvement within two to four months of steady daily sessions. Nobody credible promises a date.

One payment, yours to keep. Behaviour sessions run $90–250 an hour.
