Made my day. Perfectā€¦. A cat would steal your bed with no shame and a dog would allow it.

Triple whammy for this little guyā€¦
Heā€™s been pretty sick, weā€™ve had fireworks for days, and thunderstorms all morning.

Awww fireworks and thunder are terrifying. We have to go away when thereā€™s fireworks. Thunder hard to predict.

My wife is convinced our pup doesnā€™t mind thunder or fireworks because we watched a lot of movies with loud noises.

Our pup did go outside and bark up a storm though at the neighborā€™s fireworks. Had to go get her.

I finally have a pup that doesnā€™t mind fireworks. But I do.

Thunder expected here tomorrow. Luckily she doesnā€™t follow weather forecasting.

Thereā€™s thunder forecast nearly every day in the upcoming weekā€¦in this part of the UK at any rate.
:confused:
Freaks carly outā€¦but not as much as fireworks.

By the way, saw an interesting equation. Add the temperature (in F) to humidity, and if itā€™s over 150, donā€™t go jogging with your dog. Want to go jogging tomorrow, but while temp is only 70F, humidity in the morning is near 100, so thatā€™s over 150.

Between it being too smoky and too hot, Iā€™m not getting my normal 2 times per week with my pup of jogging.

Same here. Ditto and ditto.

Desensitize a dog to thunder is possible my vet claims. Playing thunder recordings repeatedly, with increasing volume.
We never seem to remember until itā€™s too late. And Fireworks, well ā€¦

@Pjam @coopdawg I believe Paul is becoming desensitized to fireworks and thunder this year. I credit our new doggie stroller. I got it because heā€™s old and on our walks he poops out in the heat and just comes to a complete stop. Just done. So now I bring our little stroller, pop him in and take a nice long walk. He loves it.
whenever he heard distant thunder on a walk, he would freak out and run back home. Now I put him in the stroller and we continue our walks. Itā€™s helping both issues. Even at home.

Plus, Iā€™ve learned that people love seeing dogs in strollers. Weā€™ve made some new friends.

I love the idea of playing recordings. Will look into that.

Carly takes me for a walk!

Flip, she is a strong dog no joking!
This is why I bring her to a safe area when she can burn off all her energy when off the lead (leash I think, in US).

She loves driving in the car though, sheā€™s in her space (caged off) in the rear hatch, but I keep the windows down so she can smell all the scents. She wines at dogs, ignores other cars unless they also have dogs in them, and for some reason goes apes*it at every motor bike that passes (barking mad). If itā€™s too hot, i bring her for a drive, same if it it raining sideways and howling wind.

Yeah, Paul would probably go for a drive in the middle of a tornado.

Our weather risk level has been reduced, not full week anymore.

It still might rain on the twelfth though! :cry:

But at least no lightning risk to hit the banners and ceremonial swords lol.
