Out little dog used to know weeks in advance It was coming I swear she could smell the fireworks in the shops. they should just be banned, I have never ever bought one in my life and never will. The scrubbiest sign that you are a degenerate ever is walking out of a corner shop with a plastic bag full of fireworks. like @Davidsaid, spend It on a Derby ticket..

Van der MoodHoover Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Meikle the charity pup was petrified at the weekend by someone shooting in the local woods so we're fearing 2 things. 1...he'll be petrified of fireworks and be barking uncontrollably 2... That will in itself be a failure for his advanced training. Can't be an assistance dog if you're scared of anything.... ?

Carl Sagan Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Understand it's a problem for some, but I also know dogs who have adored fireworks. Maybe it depends on the dog? Maybe it depends if they can see what is making the noise? If they spot the bright lights in the sky and the joy of people watching them, and recognize that's also making the bangs, I sometimes think they'll understand better rather than if they're locked inside just hearing bangs and wondering what's going on? Last new year's eve I was down by Tower Bridge for the big national telly show and surprised how many people had brought their dogs with them to see it, and the dogs loved it, perhaps feeding off the excitement of the humans. But the future is obviously drone displays so fireworks will soon be a thing of the past. Anyway, here's a song about fireworks I've always loved: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miggins Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I like fireworks but I don't like the percussive ones. Mum's dog, Jasmine, hates them and gets so stressed. It wouldn't be quite so bad if they could be limited to a three hour period on say, two specific days around this season. Our cat, on the other hand, couldn't give a toss.
