Not a fun 4th of July!!!!!! Vote for this post

Well we had several bad storms yesterday on the 4th of July.  Poor Bo Bryce doesn't do well in storms.  He barked and barked and climbed up next to me.  Our electricity went out along with the internet & TV.  The electricity came back but we had no internet or TV until this morning.  Fireworks all evening and until after midnight.  No sleep for me and BoBo!!!!  Jewel, bless her heart, slept through the fireworks!!!!!  Not a fun 4th of July!!!!!!  Mummy Louise, BoBo Bryce, Jewel, & Angels Caesar, Kinzie, Judah, and Murphy

Oh Louise, not sure which is worse...the thunderboomers or the fireworks! Whichever, sounds like they ruined what should have been a fun day for all of you. We are so lucky that loud noises don't bother Emmie! Hope you have a better rest of your weekend with good weather and no fireworks!
Love, Deb, Emmie, and Angel Kelsie

July 4th is never fun for us either. Emmy is a tough little Cairn, but fireworks always freak her out. What bothers me most is that we live in a canyon area where wildfires are a huge risk and even though personal fireworks are illegal in LA county there are so many folks that just ignore the law... It's havoc from 5pm to 3am the next morning!

By dawn, our valley is smoky, we can't even see the downtown buildings from our hillside home and the AQI (air quality) numbers are so high we have to stay indoors all day on July 5th.

To keep Emmy calm, we've learned to close all the window coverings, turn up the TV volume all night long, and keep her distracted with treats and cuddles.

Oh mark, I can't imagine all of the smoke would be very afraid of the wild fires
I wish fireworks were banned here also, they can only purchased and shot off the 3rd and 4th far to long if you asked me. Poor little Emmy i feel so sorry for all if the pets. People just don't understand.
Take care.

Louise and everyone affected ,we are so sorry and we wish Fireworks were banned everywhere let alone the waste of money..far better to put it to the animal rescues  rather than frightening and harming them throughout the world..we hope  Bo Bryce is a little calmer now and that the storms have subsided maybe for you..
Stay safe and know we are thinking of you .
Much Love and Hugs to all Annie Bibsy and Drew xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Louise sorry the storm power outage and fireworks made for a bad night. Know just how bad it gets with the fireworks. Grady doesn't do well with them at all.I wish they would ban the sell and enforce laws on fireworks. They go nearly all night on july 4th and into three days after the holiday and it's very upsetting.

We are sorry to hear you had such bad storms.

We have had relentless heat above 100 degrees F.

Not too many fireworks around here.

Hope your storms go away.

Love Riley and Allen
