I see posts about dogs loose on holidays every year. Why be a dick about it?

I didn’t read what you posted, figured it was a warning to keep them inside

Seems like a fake and gay Reddit post

I'm glad I'm way out away from everyone else - no fireworks issues.

My "the dog" Aussie would get outraged at anyone shooting fireworks near the house. When I lived in town, my neighbors two doors down were blasting fireworks. Layla slid out the door and went down there for battle. Neighbor told me "I heard this awful wild racket coming through the smoke, and then this hell hound comes out ready for action. She ran them into the house and worked over the fireworks LOL.

AI did a nice rendition of my Aussie and Border Collie (also a great dog). It needs to do a little more work on the Border Collie.

In my experience dogs that are bothered by fireworks are also bothered by thunderstorms, etc. Those happen more than once a year, so as a dog person you should already be prepared with a plan. Thundershirt, etc.

I save my complaints for people setting fireworks off a week early or late.

My dog thinks the world is ending every July 4th and Jan 1st.

Thank you to everyone who doesn’t pop fireworks.

I've seen studies on this arguing both sides. I believe animals have souls and souls can be connected.

Please keep our fur babies in mind this Fourth of July. Instead of buying fireworks this year and celebrating with your family and making family memories, why not buy a bag of dog food instead and donate it to the animal shelter. My Princess doesn't love fireworks. Every fourth of July I have to wrap Princess in a blanket and stroke her brow and rub cool water on her legs and tell her positive affirmations. The next morning Princess is wagging her tail and playing and acting like nothing ever happened, but in the momemt my heart breaks for Princess. I am dreading it already. Me and Princess might both shite ourselves on the fourth of July.


Blah blah blah...

My dog hates the fireworks and I feel bad for her. But, I don't mind people celebrating the 4th or NYE. They shouldn't not pop fireworks because of my dog. What does piss me off is the ones who are doing it 2-3 days before/after.

I have a lab that turns completely gay when fireworks go off. He goes in the kennel and has anxiety. End of story.

People need to quit being pussies about fireworks.

It was an obvious parody, genius. But, you didn't get that, which means that you're definitely closer to clinically retarded than statitistically normal.

Pathetic.

I have a dog that hates fireworks. Scares the shite out of her. That’s not the reason I hate fireworks. I hate them because people don’t stick to one night. They pop them for days leading up and then days after. If there could be fireworks from 7pm to midnight on the Fourth of July only that’d be one thing. But that’s never the case.

Fireworks should be outlawed. They never will be but that’s my position. They serve no purpose for anyone with an ounce of sense. They are for trashy and dumb people.

They are outlawed in my city. People don’t GAF.

I hate when I’m trying to sleep and they’re popping fireworks all week.

Joined this and immediately silenced it. Don't want to hear any drama going on, I only joined in case my dog goes missing. People that stay on facebook neighborhood pages and Nextdoor app are worse than the people complaining about fireworks. Get a life.

My lab doesn’t flinch with fireworks…

Shot gun blasted near her doesn’t affect her either…
