Dog - whimpering

    Hi All,

    Bit of a problem with our 11 month old Dachshund / American Staffie mix in the past month.

    My fiancee started college in the past month and was at home with the dog most of the day since up until then since we got him in early Jan this year. Also in the past 2 weeks I'm on a contract break from work (happens the odd time) so I'm at home, in the gym or in interviews.

    The dog has started whimpering within minutes of being left alone when we are in the house. I'm not sure if he's doing it when we're not home. I'll play with him for say a half hour , either leave him alone in the small back yard or put him to bed in his crate in the kitchen. Within minutes he'll start. He even did it briefly when my fiancee wouldn't let him sit on her lap in the living room (he's a heavy guy).

    He doesn't seem to be in pain anywhere and does the same thing regardless of us spending the day with him or not. He's also walked once a day and I play quite energetic games with him.

    Any ideas what might be causing this ?
