Cody was never scared of thunder or loud noises,Late June 2018 it became legal in Pennsylvania to buy and set off fireworks. Since the law was passed late June 2018 July 4th not many ppl knew about it, and it was its usual quiet community.
Last year it was like a war zone with missals, flares, bombs bursting in air right over my roof. Cody was frantic, shaking, hiding under the bed. Now I don't coddle him, that only reinforces there is something to be scared off. I Kept telling him it's ok. After July 4 2019 he hears thunder and gets scared, again, I don't coddle him.
This Memorial Day weekend, thankfully no one close to my house was setting of missals or flares, but somewhere in the community there was. Poor Cody, he was shaking like a leaf, I just had to pick him up and press him against me tight. He's gonna be a basket case this July 4th and there is no way for me to protect him, thunder, he now hides behind the sofa.
So I know what you go through with lil Penny.
