As soon as I turned the hood fan on over the over tonight he freaked out and ran to look up at the smoke detector. He was shaking by then and jumped in my lap. It wound up going off and he was shaking so bad I thought his fur was going to fall off. I noticed the panting too.
Once in a while he will be scared and bark at something stupid, but the smoke detector is the only thing that completely terrifies him.
Our older dog is terrified of fireworks and lightening. She hides if she sees the flashes or even hears thunder.
Poor Bella, I hate to see them shaking like that.  |
Hoping yr little guy doesn't have anymore scary episodes! They really are so very Smart & intuitive! It's hard to see them frightened this way. Unless you've gone through it with them, it's hard to realize, but it really is so heartbreaking to see them scared with panting, trembling, etc.
