Black labrador?
I have a one year old black labrador, who will not stop barking/howling whenever I leave the house even 4 5 mins. I give her lots of toys to occupy her e.g puzzle balls etc chews yet she is so distressed she is not interested despite her large appetite. I had a dog behaviourlist out that told me to leave her every day for a bit and gradually go out longer and longer but to no avail. I also have a 3 month old baby and my husband has just walked out on us. The neighbours are complaining (i understand its loud) I got a barking sensor that emits a high pitch but she just ignores it! am at my wits end. I dont wanna give her up because she is a great dog in every other way. Any ideas???? Please help?? she is well excersised etc so even if she is really tired she is still at it!!
I live in the UK Debarking is illegal here!
I know you must be short on time, as you are self supporting, and have a baby. But, do you have any time to trade a doggy day care? Some dog day cares will allow you to leave your dog there in trade for an hour of cleaning the kennels and the laundry.
If that is not an option, I would recommend giving her chamomile tea, about 15-20 minutes before you leave. Dump it out of the teabag, and mix with about 2 tablespoons of quality canned food.
This will relieve much of her stress, and is not harmful in any way. Once she learns to relax a bit, it will break the cycle of hysteria.

Dalmatian Dog Breed
Of all the dogs, the Dalmatian is easily spotted by its characteristic black spotted features. How these black spots evolved remains a puzzle. The Dalmatian is a European breed, first discovered in Western Yugoslavia. In the USA the Dalmatian was first introduced about 120 years ago and still remains one of the most popular dogs as a pet.
One of the great features of the Dalmatian is its energy level and ability to exercise for long duration. The Dalmatian is not a pet for a small apartment because it needs a lot of room. Training this dog is not difficult but does require a great deal of patience. Training can be difficult at times because the dog often tends to become stubborn. While the Dalmatian does make a great pet dog, it often does get ill tempered with other dogs. Ironically, it is quite friendly with other animals like cats and even horses. For those families with children, the Dalmatian should not be the first pet as it is full of energy and though not intentional, it can be a little rough with small children. However, if the dog is well trained it can make a great loving pet. Despite its size and energy, the dog will rarely harm a child or the owner.
Upkeep and Maintenance
The Dalmatian is one dog that needs regular exercise and thus, it is more suited for people who are active. Simply taking the Dalmatian out to poop will not be adequate as it prefers to go for long outdoor runs. The majority of Dalmatian owners indicate that it makes a great jogging companion. When you first buy the Dalmatian as a puppy it will gladly live in the apartment, but as soon as it grows, it will let you know where it wants to go. Throwing a ball in the park is another way to provide exercise for them as well.
The Dalmatian prefers the cool temperate weather more so than the hot humid climate. When outside, one has to make sure that it is provided with lots of water and a shade to rest under. The dog does tend to become attached to humans and loves people company. Even though the Dalmatian loves the outdoors, it also prefers to be with humans once inside the home.
Health Information
While the Dalmatian generally is disease free, it does suffer from deafness with age. Other common medical ailments that may afflict the dog include an under active thyroid gland, allergies, visual problems and seizures. While CHD has been reported, it is very rare and no where near as common as what occurs in rotteweillers. All Dalmatian owners are recommended that the dog be checked regularly by a veterinarian to screen for the above mentioned health problems
The majority of pet dalmatians live at least 12- 15 years. There are even reports of some Dalmatians living a lot longer. While comparisons are difficult, the dog can be as loving and gentle as a Labrador when it is well trained.
