Heidi has a major storm phobia. She is petrified of just rain and wind, nevermind thunder or fireworks. Each year there are firworks about half a mile from our house. I plan to leave town while the fireworks are happening. Our vet also prescribed ACE for Heidi, but the more I read about it the less I actually want to try it. I figure we can't avoid thunder, but we can predict fireworks and avoid them.
Would leaving the area with Fletcher during the fireworks be an option for you instead of using drugs?
Let us know how he makes out.
