Yes...what mark said...although I don't know that a psychologist is in order. The dog's obviously reacting to the new surroundings. some animals take longer to adjust to a move than others. How long have you been in the "new" house. Did you take time off from work (that is, if you have a 9-5) during/after the move to help the dog settle in. If you moved on a weekend and then just immediately went back to work Monday morning, the dog is probably going through some emotional trauma. Not only being in new surroundings, but being there ALONE all day. Sounds like some real quality time is needed with the animal. Take some time off to be with the dog, teach him to use the door more often (with positive based training) and things will probably get better. Sounds like you might need to use baby steps with this process, if it's that bad.
