Charlie does not like rain. I mean he really does not like it, he shakes if he senses it will rain he shakes when it comes and if it thunders you can give it up, his tongue becomes 10 feet long and he panics and breathes heavily. It is so pitiful
Now I have been told that all small breed have this issue and I have asked my vet about it they have suggested 1.5mg of melatonin about an hour before bad weather hits if I know its coming. Sometimes it works and sometimes not A couple times I did put him in his crate and covered it thinking it might calm him but it did not and I took him out.
There is no consoling him at these times, you can hold and love on him and it makes no difference. It is raining now and we are expecting bad storms tonight, I did give him his melatonin with a half of a pepcid AC when he gets stressed his pancreatitis kicks in and thats a whole other issue. any help/suggestions is appreciated
