My friend took her dog to the Vet and they put the dog on anxiety medicine and she is fine now.

You can search the internet and find a ton of information, but what worked with my grey was constant reassurance. I don't remember exactly what it is called, but you need to start with walking out of the room and walking back in. When you notice that she is not stressed any more, you lengthen the time your are out of the room. Eventually she'll get the idea that you are indeed coming back and she'll be better. It took my grey close to two years before she was ok. Good Luck!! Some greyhounds will always have separation anxiety, but you can definitely work with her.
