Hi everyone . I'm a new member of the forum and have joined to get advice on a problem I have with my whippet puppy .
He is a perfect pup in almost every way , comes back when called , very affectionate , loves children and adults alike but I would say he has become almost too attached to me . he spends almost all his time with me and I'm lucky enough to be able to take him with me to work which is in a book and antique shop. The problem starts when I have a customer and I leave him at the other end of the shop on his lead . If he can see me he just whines away and creates a real fuss until I return .
Does anyone know how to stop this problem as it is really getting quite distressing . My pup is aroun 5 months old . He gets plenty of attention (maybe too much )as people who come into the shop always fuss him .

I'd be grateful for a solution to this problem

Jane
