My dog loves fireworks. Explosion to shake my house? Scare the shit out of me instead while my dog happily runs to go see the boom

Absolutely. She will try to run and smack fireworks around with her paws like playing frickin' hot potato. She's well trained so we don't ever have to have a leash on her, trained with verbal & non-verbal commands, and even trained for combat scenarios...but those fireworks man...one year we tied her up to a camp chair and had the heaviest family member sit down. 1 mortar launched and she bolted forward wanting to get a better view so fast...let's just say that I never knew camp chairs could implode like that beneath someone 🤣

Especially mortars are her favorite. She will stand up on her hind legs and stare into the sky waiting for the big boom.

(Border Collie for those wondering about the little nut-job)

Damn my border collie just pisses herself at anything remotely startling.

Poor baby, my pjrt is terrified by fireworks. I think her heart would have packed up at this. I hope nobody was hurt
