Piper got very edgy and rather aggressive after three days of workmen in and out of the house, passing within a few feet of her dozens of times a day, drills, saws, pounding; plus she was very restricted in movement as front/back door open and backyard gate often left open. On about the third or fouth day, while I was holding her, she actually lunged at my landlord as he walked in front us. Within days of remodeling ending, Piper was back to herself and I haven't seen anything like that since...And I must say, at the time, I was about ready to take down the next floor stomping construction guy that got within range myself!!! It was all rather nerve-wracking, but as I said, calm was restored and peace has prevailed.
