Dog Days of Summer
July 10th, 2009
The dog days of summer are here, the heat is oppressive and thunderstorms wander. The big dogs in my home (the newfies) are fairly well accustomed to thunderstorms and I am blessed because i live in a home that is extemely soundproofed from outside noises. But my little Zoey, the rat terrier, shivers and quakes. I wrap her in a lightweight blanket and hold her next to me in the recliner and eventually her shaking subsides. I have considered using the new pet calming FLOWER essences to help calm her fears. These new calming products that they have on the market these days are supposed to really work.
The liquid can be dropped just a couple small drops into the outh or can be but into the drinking water, anyhow, seems like this might work.
I used to use “rescue remedy” (and this product is vey similar) myself when i would go to Dog shows and get all nerved up.
Well…another thunderstorm is on the way, I need to shut down the computer and protect my cable modem. Between protecting my litttle Zoey and protecting my computer, I don’t have time to do much of anything else during a summer thunderstorm
