Day 14 of August words - Nestle. My Riley pup is terrified of thunder. During last week's storm, she hopped on the couch and straight into my lap and shook. I was able to calm her down after we both shook for some time and snag a few phone shots.
Aw poor thing. Luckily neither of mine are bothered by thunder or fireworks but my daughter’s dog is. It is so distressing to see. Lovely shot of her schnozzle though.
@tinley23 She can 'let' us know when I storm is coming often before I can check the weather app.
@k9photo Not a bad idea, she can sometimes be distracted by a box fan which makes lots of noise.
@samae She just started to do this but if it helps then my lap is ready.
@dustyloup She put up with me sticking the phone in her face, mind you I had to keep rubbing her ears.
@amyk She is a small thing (27lbs) and is easily spooked by unknown/unseen noises. We've tried anti anxiety drops but they don't really work, a good cuddle and reassurance is better.
@olivetreeann I feel for her. We had a big Golden that was the best foul weather indicator when we lived back east. She'd stuff herself between the wall and the toilet for comfort.

@pdulis Thank you.

@theredcamera Thank you so much.
@bubblequeen Thank you kindly.
@photographycrazy She is a special pup who gives up lots of love and terrorizes the squirrels when she can.
@pusspup Thunder can be a real issue here but so far, she hasn't started howling...
@santina Whenever, where ever we can comfort will always will.
@quietpurplehaze My sons are much too old to cuddle with Mom so, my pup helps my Motherly behavior.
