With the seperation anxiety it needs to be tiny steps. I don't think there is a quick fix but have you tried this

1) buy a kong and stuff it with something tasty (naturediet is very good and you can freeze surplus in ice cube trays as you will only need a little to start and deforst a couple of cubes a day.

2) put a tablespoon of Ndiet in the kong give it to the dog and see how long it lasts.

3) do it the next day give the dog the kong and leave the house for a bit less than it takes for him to finish the kong. Big fuss when you come in if he isn't barking.

4) inc the amount ndiet (you can freeze it in the kong to make it last longer) gradually and inc the amount of time you stand outside the front door.

5) give your dog rescue remedy (available in boots)

6) You could try puzzle toys too.
