My dog has been a nightmare with all the fireworks going off this week. He’s been glued to me, shivering and panting for the whole evening several times this week, as soon as he’s heard the first one going off. Trying to ignore it as much as possible, so he thinks we’re not bthered so why should he be?
Daft thing is that he comes to work with me all the time and quite ofter hears bangs, from pyrotechnics and blank rounds. Not bothered by that in the slightest.
As for chocolate, my vet described it as being like heroin for dogs. Most can eat it in small quantities with no apparent effects but possibly one day react to it and be ill, other dogs react badly straight away.
