Every year my dog is terrified to leave her bed once fireworks start. Especially terrified to go back outside after fireworks occur. It impacts her severely, and we hate to see her in pure fear.
It’s especially awful when someone sets fireworks off during the day. I will never know when it happens, but once it does, my dog will try running back home to hide in her bed. Nothing can comfort her, and it’s really not necessary for random people to set fireworks off anywhere they want.
Two of our sweet retired racing greyhounds were traumatized by fireworks. We lost one of them, O’Riley, to a firework stress related incident after Canada Day neighbourhood fireworks. The trauma both of our dogs experienced was not humane. The fireworks available to the general public are just too powerful to be used in residential neighbourhoods.
I worked as an animal care technician for 36 years. I know there are many new ways to improve animal health that vets do not do or have never been trained to do. Things need to change. The old fashioned monopoly on pet care needs to be updated !
