Mine don't like them either and fireworks send them a bit loopy
I used to have a dog like that he would jump in your lab or squeeze into the small place he could fit. Now I have 6yr old girl that is like that. lol
Poor Sasha, she looks so unhappy.
Maybe if you have a small cabinet or even a box in a closet with nothing in it that you could close when the thunder starts.
That's a hard one, I'm like you I love a good thunderstorm.
awwww she looks sooo scared. I think it's a dog thing to not like thunder storms. I know of a few dogs who will bark, howl and even cry when there's a thunder storm, including my Benji.
We had a keeshound that was terrified of storms, he went so far as to go to my brother in laws house and break in when it stormed.
I've heard that getting a tape of what the dog is afraid of and playing it in the background @ low volume for awhile and then gradually increasing the volume over a few weeks time will desensitize animals to certain noises, storms, gunfire etc. We have all 3, Mugsey doesn't like gunfire and fireworks, Skeeter ditto and storms scare her too, Dispatch doesn't wake up unless it makes me jump too!
Poor poor Sasha, she does look terrified.
Poor baby, girl. Sasha is adorable. My kitty hates thunder, too. Thanks for your nice comments on my bloggy. Hugzzzz to you, and SQ, for introducing us to each other. ;-)
Sasha- have your Mommy ask your V-E-T about Rescue Remedy. Some of our friends who are afraid of thunder or fireworks use it.... it soothes them and makes them less scared!
