We did that with Jesse when we got her. The HS found her in a field with a leash on and that was it. So after we got her, she did suffer from separation anxiety. So we would hide behind doors and have her find us and we would also leave her in the house go outside and check back every 5-10 minutes or so just to let her know we were here and eventually made it longer and longer. We just did this and it seemed to work. She's absolutely wonderful now and has no problem staying by herself. She was pretty bad there for a while when we would leave her. She was rebelling and started getting into things she shouldn't have including wires that were plugged in. We could've had a fried puppy. I never thought about it in detail, but that's what we did and everything is fine now. I guess it was my motherly instincts!!
