I believe that is probably true - I know my JRT went nuts from the first storm when he was just a baby. Like Eddie, there was nothing that could console him. I know he was never exposed to any sudden noxious noise prior to the storm. It is an awful affliction though. I feel very sorry for dogs/animals that have to suffer it.
