I hope your dog isn’t as fearful as mine Friday night we had a very strong Thunderstorm woke us up at 1 in the morning My poor baby was shaking so bad, he never gets on my bed, he wrapped himself around the bed post and was trembling so bad So I sat on the floor and held him.

Talk to your vet about gabapenton. It al.s down the fight or flight response.

My pup had to take that after surgery once and it gave him terrible diarrhea. But I don’t think his fear of storms is that severe. Thanks for sharing that info, though!

Do they have a canine equivalent of feliway?

I have sedation for my dog but when the storms come in so fast it won’t work in time for him. I can’t put a thunder blanket on him either because he doesn’t like to have anything on. The vet told me mixed breed labs are very sensitive to noise, and that is my dog.🐾🐾

That's rough. Poor little guy. My cat is terrified of so many things, but especially fireworks and thunder and lightning.

Yes it is rough for animals. I had a cat years ago and the first clap of thunder he went and hid.

That hurts my heart. 💔 Mine doesn’t get quite that scared. He just sticks to me like Velcro.
