She does this every time there is a thunderstorm, loud noise, or what i believe to be a change in the pressure/static electricity in the air. You know when you turn the TV off it makes that static sound? well that bothers her too but she doesn't freak out as much for that since its quick and over with in a second.

she never did this the first 2 years of life and then shortly after turning 2 this started up. I spoke with a vet behaviorist and she asked how old she was and when it started. When i told her it started shortly after turning 2 she said that was a very common age for these things to happen. i do not remember why or if she told me why though.
I have a very skiddish yorkie too, and this did start more after the age of 2. Poor Suzi becomes so scared when the lights go off, the smoke dector , storms ... All of that . I feel so badly for her. I have to hold her , and she still is so frightened .
