I can sympathise, used to have an old terrier that would do loops at the sight of a shotgun would sit in a hide all day with shots being fired over his head and not flinch. First firework of the year and he would be a shivering wreck. Never cured him of it. TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Truther 1,579 Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 My lurcher dog is terrified of fireworks mate, he seems to be getting worse as he gets older? I've got hold of some herbal capsules that seem to be working, "Global herbs relax capsules" and he's just chilled out now, looks a bit stoned wish i got some sooner, before he chewed the new door would have been good £15 for 60 capsules, he's about 50lb, and 2 do the job a treat.
