An estimated 49 percent of dogs show a significant fear response to firework noise. Keeping pets calm during fireworks is important for their safety but also for their overall health.Halloween may be a spooky holiday for people, but it's the Fourth of July that scares our pets. Ana journal for vets, cites a 2005 study that found an estimated 49 percent of dogs show a significant fear response to firework noise.
I've had two noise-phobic dogs in my life. These dogs didn't just hide under a blanket until the loud noises passed. No, these dogs knocked over and climbed onto furniture, dug through the carpet to escape, tore up things and trembled so badly, I feared they would collapse or have a heart attack. Dogs with that level of noise-phobia can hurt themselves, and it’s up to us to develop a strategy to help them cope.
If your dog is most calm in a kennel, try moving the kennel into a closet and drape it with blankets to help further muffle the noise.
