A 9 1/2 month old female Basenji is presented with problems of house soiling and anxiety. The case is assessed by means of a questionnaire and observation. It is diagnosed as a deprivation syndrome, caused by insufficient conditions during puppyhood. A combination therapy consisting of propranolol medication and relaxation exercises is only partially successful. The influence of factors from the dogs living environment is discussed.
