The 4th of July was this weekend. Last year, the mutts did great! This year, one of them was like
The Oatmeal's 4th of July Dog Cartoon.
We visited some friends in the evening, and their dog had a Thundershirt. They said it worked for her. When we got home, we needed to think of something to calm our poor mutt. So we rummaged through Maple Munchkin's too-small-clothes bin and came up with a shirt!
Amazingly, it worked. She was much calmer after we put the shirt on her. And I think she looks pretty good in stripes.
Make it Better
How do you calm your mutt when there's thunder or fireworks?
