Mentally preparing myself for being locked in a closet with my drugged up dogs who will be a nervous wreck all night and it’s the only place in the house they feel safe in, but I also need to be in there for them to feel safe, and the sounds of the fireworks will be slightly muffled from there.
My childhood dog thought the fireworks were monsters she needed to protect us from. We had to lock her inside because otherwise she’d go charging off towards the sound, barking her head off, fully planning to unleash 20 pounds of whoopass on them when she found them.
My dog has fairly recently gone deaf, and the only tiny silver lining is that he’s been completely unfazed by the fireworks we’ve been getting for the past week around us. Good luck tonight!
Thanks! I feel that. My eldest pup is deaf and is no longer freaked out by any loud noises, but he picks up on the younger one’s anxiety. Luckily it’s just fireworks and not thunderstorms that frighten the young one so we only have to deal with this bullshit twice a year.

My dogs and I aren’t fans of the 4th of July.
Somehow we got lucky. He wants the fireworks to play with.

Silly pup!
