She has a stuffed Kong which occupies her for ages.
It's not separation anxiety, at least I don't think so. She sleeps in our room at night in her own bed. She is not left for long periods of time and she likes to sit and look out the window while we are out.
She knows she has done wrong when she licks. She sneaks off when I'm not looking and finds a quiet corner. In ten mins she can lick a hot spot till it bleeds. I hate putting the cone on her but she has had it on for two days now and her leg is much better. All I have done is washed her leg with warm water and dried it with a cool hair dryer. There is no infection or pus other wise I would be at the vet sharpish.
She is a mystery to me but I think Bichons are notorious for this kind of thing.
They are not the easiest of dogs
