Oh, Jackson HATES fireworks. And gun shots. We live on 3 acres but there's a 90 acre farmfield behind us and the farmers sons are often out there shooting, whether it be deer or birds, etc. Jackson will go hide under my bed and not come out for atleast an hour. One time, I was on my way out the door to go out to dinner, and they were out back shooting.... Jackson has NEVER tried to run out the door with me, or was that concerned, but he seriously tried to run out the door with me and gave me the saddest 'mommy, please help!' look that I ended up staying home with him.
I took him on vacation to Gettysburg and we were outside, a far ways away from the fireworks, and he was TERRIFIED. I took him back to the hotel and tried to comfort him, but during fireworks, he wants nothing more than to hide under anything he can hide under.
Poor guy. |
