Even if my Rhianna wasn't deathly afraid of thunder, I wouldn't take her. I'd be afraid she'd get loose or there would be a large dog there, etc. I'm one of those over-protective furkid's mom . . .
Also, when they have our fireworks there is always someone shooting off bottle rockets or playing with sparklers and I'd be afraid something would happen to my little ones . . .OR ME, which is why we no longer attend our annual fireworks but are able to see them from my son's bedroom window if they happen to be high enough . . .
