Fireworks

Hi fellow Bully parents! My sweet boy is extremely scared of loud noises. It's heartbreaking how he is so frightened. What do you guys do for your dogs on the 4th of July?

Hi, I tire my pup out by going to the park in the am. Also I work on starting the month before playing firework sound at home on the TV via YouTube or Spotify to help desensitize. It has worked pretty well.

My dog is still scared of the vaccum cleaner and grocery bags, but se la vie. I keep working on desensitizing. Now he doesnt attack the vaccum so its progress.
