| Thunder!!! It's pouring outside and my baby HATES the thunder... she's got her little tail in between her legs... It's so sad. Is your yorkie afraid of thunder?

| Thank goodness not one of mine is afraid. But, we are very matter of fact about it from the minute they come home.. I know dogs who are terrified and their mommy makes a fuss over it. Negative re-enforcement.. |

| Suspicious! You would think that Sully would be afraid of thunder, but in reality he's suspicious of it. When it thunders, Sully goes to the nearest door or window and paces back and fourth, growling under his breath, in a huff, as if to say ""whoever or whatever you are out there making such noise, you better go away from my mommy or daddy or you'll have ME to deal with!" Isn't that hilarious?

| We had severe storms a couple nights ago and Jo didn't even notice. He's pretty much o.k. with anything that doesn't mess with his toys or his Mom |

| Tyke HATES storms. He will shake terribly and pant and whine and ALWAYS has to be with someone or he'll underneath a bed or an endtable. We don't like to do that because if we have to head to the basement we want to be able to grab him. As for Bubba...if it thunders his ears will stick straight up and he'll sit there and cock his head like he's concentrating. Then after a while he gets mad and starts barking. That's my doggie --Melissa

| We've had three earthquakes in the last couple of weeks and the dogs reacted to all of them. It was eery. They have a sense and they barked and ran around like crazy. They weren't afraid. They wanted to ptotect us. it was cute! |

| We were advised to train the dogs for thunder and fireworks - so I downloaded a realistic screensaver and we ran it a few minutes every day loud whil we danced and played around on the floor as if nothing happened. Little by little the girls ignored it and started playing with us instead of looking scared. If there is one loud and sudden BANG outside the big one will still put herself against my neck/throat, but other than that they don't react to loud noises.

| I don't know if she's afraid yet, because of we haven't had a good storm, but of all the dogs I had my biggest scaredy cat was my big male pit bull. He would run for the bed,and stick his head half way under, and all you seen was his big butt sticking out. It was so funny. |
