from 30 seconds to 12 minutes alone without panic 🎉

Pomeranian with textbook separation anxiety. We've been doing absurdly tiny reps for weeks and today he got to 12 calm minutes while I sat in my car downstairs feeling like I was defusing a bomb. Still a long road, but wow.

Don't be surprised if it bounces around tomorrow. Still real progress.

I'm bracing for chaos but letting myself enjoy this one tonight.

Tiny reps feel ridiculous until suddenly they're not tiny anymore.

Sitting in the car watching the camera is such a specific lifestyle.
