Here Comes the Rain

It is the start of Rainy Season and that means thunderstorms.  Thunderstorms never bothered me when I was younger, but that seems to be changing and we don't know why.

Rainy Season is back in South Florida so Oz wears his Thundershirt

Monday's thunderstorm was a big one so Ma brought out my Thundershirt.  It helps a little bit...but it doesn't stop me from barking at the thunder.

Have a great...and dry...Wordless Wednesday!

  3. It's stormy season up here in IL, too. Fortunately, storms never bothered Pip or Ruby. I hope the Thundershirt helps Oz.

  4. I (Furts) Feel your Pain... Storms scare the POOPS outta me. The thundershirt didn't help ME much at all either..
    Ernie isn't scared of storms... I think he is too ignorant to know he SHOULD be afraid of them. Butt Mom says I shouldn't say that.

  8. Fortunately storms have never bothered me. Thundershirts have helped a lot of my foster siblings, though!

  9. We have a lot of thunder in the summer at twilight (most of the times with no rain) and we'd go crazy if we let the thunder bother us. We're used to it.

  16. That happened to Katie too. She never minded storms and then as she got older it scared her, but now her hearing is off and it no longer bothers her.

  18. This also happened to Bourbon as he got older. So far we haven't needed to do anything extra besides cuddle with him :), but every year it gets slightly worse.

  21. I hope that the thunderstorms aren't too bad in your area! You look really cute in your ThunderShirt. I've considered getting one of those for my cat Cinco. He's a bit of a nervous guy.

  25. Our pawrents are glad that neither of us cares about the thunder. Some of our Angel siblings were not so calm.

  27. The same thing happened with our older dog but it helped a bit when we gave him a treat every time the thunder rumbled. Our vet thought that the reason was that our dog was going deaf so he "felt" the vibration of the thunder but didn't hear it. And that probably confused him after a lifetime of hearing the thunder. So, with some success, we counterconditioned him to like that thunder vibration by sitting next to him and giving him a treat after each thunder rumble.

    I don't know if my rambling is any help at all but I sure hope that you don't get too much thunder this season, Oz!

  28. The thunder will always be louder! You should live here. It hardly ever thunders!

  32. Oz I think you're telling the thunder to be quiet and cut it out already.

  36. We didn't get many thunderstorms last summer, and hope it's the same this one. We have a thundershirt to try if they bother Luke, though it never helped Sheba much. Sorry they bother you, Oz, you must get a lot of them down there.
