00:00This might be the funniest solution to separation anxiety that I have probably ever seen.
00:06When Dino's parents leave the house, he cuddles with a life-sized human doll.
00:13Since the beginning, he always had separation anxiety, but this was like on another level.
00:19But behind this very creative solution is the severe separation anxiety that Dino has experienced since he was a puppy.
00:36I couldn't leave the house.
00:38Every time I would come back, like I would see him and he would just be so stressed and I
00:42just felt so bad for him.
00:45Nothing really seemed to calm him down.
00:47He was just so scared.
00:49I need to figure out how to fix this.
00:52I was anxious and he was anxious.
00:54Oh, puppy, you're so cute. I love you. I love you.
00:59But then they saw another family using the mannequin technique.
01:05So they were like, you know what? Like, why not?
01:08This is crazy, but I'm going to try it out.
01:11I dressed him up with my clothes and my boyfriend's.
01:15Immediately, he was so excited. He kept like trying to play with it.
01:21And they named him Holland.
01:24It's been great because I can finally leave my house and not have to be worried that my dog is
01:30having literally an anxiety attack at home.
01:33We only take him out when he's going to be alone.
01:36Like, I don't leave this around my house.
01:39I guess Dino thinks that Holland is like a little babysitter.
01:43Dino can finally relax.
01:45And this is all thanks to a human doll.
01:47Like, who would have thought?
01:58I don't know.
