As long as he is clean in the house when you leave him, and doesn't chew anything he shouldn't, then just leaving him in a familiar room with his bed and perhaps a small chewy treat is fine. Take him out to the toilet just before you leave him (and preferably had walked him, so he is tired), and straightaway when you get back. Leave him for at least 20 minutes to start with, but not too long. Otherwise, a cosy crate (folding metal kennel) is useful. I have used these for all of my dogs and they see them as their safe place. I prefer not to have dogs sleeping in the same room, and also not to be able to follow you around the house all of the time. This will not help with any separation anxiety. Our dogs are only allowed in the kitchen/utility area, and even if the door to the hall is open will not step over the line! Helps with cleaning and they get some peace and quiet. Everyone comments how quiet and relaxed our dogs are. Well, it doesn't happen by accident - as the Dog Whisperer says, "Exercise, Discipline, Love" in that order.
