What is your opinion on getting a buddy for my Toy Poodle that has seperation anxiety?

I have tried everything, I really just think he is lonely. My housemates and I are even trying to keep our schedules perfect so someone is always home.

I have heard mixed things about getting a dog to try to help with seperation anxiety.

Thanks in advance

well, this is not an informed opinon, but I have always had more than one pet at a time. usually a dog and cat. and none of mine ever had seperation anxiety while I was gone. so maybe that helps?

Tango has separation anxiety and I have 2 other dogs in the house with her. I don't think getting another dog would really help, most dogs with separation anxiety are wanting your attention not another dog in most cases...

Honestly, if you have the room, resources, etc., 2 dogs are easier than 1.
