That's a hard one , Dianne . The only thing I can think of is another chi to keep her company . They do seem to have a preference for other Chis . I do know of calming herbs but their effect is kind of short term and I have no idea if they are safe for dogs , You are at work all day ? Is there a friend she could stay with while you are at work ?
