When the neighbors first started shooting them off, the dogs all ran outside and barked at the noise. Then when everyone started shooting them off full-tilt-boogey, they decided there was too much to deal with so they just came inside and curled up on the couch next to me. The ancient pittie, however, made the effort to pick himself up from his bed and come over to lay down ON my feet until it calmed down outside.
No shaking, no real trauma - just a little closer cuddling. So all was well in my house. |
