He's been doing just fine when left alone. I'm simply trying to "add on" and find something I can leave him with so I can teach him that my leaving is not only okay, but that it means good things for him. I'm looking for the safest option to suit the purpose.
How that equates to an excuse is beyond me, but whatever. Thanks for the suggestions.
Deni, MRL was not speaking to the issue of barking or your vast improvement dealing with it. She was just commenting specifically on your post (#114) dealing with being scared of using the Kong which she quoted at the beginning of your thread.

As far as what to stuff it with, there are many different things you could use (with the squirrel dude too). There are threads here and other websites devoted to different things to try. I'm at work and don't have the links here, but maybe some others will pipe in on this.
