Bella is completely petrified of the thunder. She has been panting, and generally trying to find somewhere anywhere to get away from it - since about 4am this morning. It has eased off here the thunder that is but due back. She is totally stressed so suggestions. She is still panting even though there is no thunder.
Have put the TV on in both kitchen/living room but don't think that's helping at all - mind you the thunder has been rolling and loud.
Not been over fussing her just acting normal - she is now under the kitchen table panting.
Poor dog and she was going okay, when I opened the back door to run out to the shed and she panicked maybe thinking we were putting her out which I wasn't and feel terrible now (We know she was kept outside) which I imagine was a living nightmare for her with this thunder fear - or maybe that caused it.
So any suggestions....... No idea if she has always had this as you know she is a SBT rescue and 5 years old.
Although I think this bodes poorly for the fireworks..... maybe look at something like Bella is completely petrified of the thunder.
