I had a Jack Russell that would just bark, run in circles, jump in the air, and pant so I finally had to give him a mild tranquilizer and put him in his crate (where he slept every night) in a darkened room (so he couldn't see the flashes of fireworks) with the radio on loudly. I felt so sorry for him, but we tried everything until we just had to completely remove him from the situation. Also, sometimes we would take him places where there would be no fireworks. We also had to same problem with him during thunderstorms. He was really scared.
