HI... our pets are a little freaked out as well... This year we're gonna take them out where that night where fireworks aren't such a bother. Drugs aren't the worst idea however if your dog is really a wreck during the 4th.
Just a thought.. lori Tail Wagging Designs �� by www.lodoosh.com Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Freya Steinmeyer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 3:06 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: drugged BMDs on the 4th of July Any advice on BMDs who don't like 4th of July? I don't know what to do with my Bennington. Tranquilizers have come to mind; however, it seems so mean. Unfortunately, our house is very close to a fireworks show (extreme sound and sight). I have a feeling Bennington will be uncomfortable no matter how closed up and locked up the house is. He had a bad experience last year... too close for comfort. Any alternatives other than drugging Bennington? Freya M.
