@Sting, I could try being excited. I just know my dog is ALREADY afraid so I feel like it is harder than starting from scratch.

Hummer, it still might be your body language without you realising it. You almost need to be over dramatically happy and energetic.
Timing is important too

And there goes my cat under my bed... neighbors are lighting off fireworks even though it is illegal in my neighborhood because we are so close to the mountains.

Nova is a very fearful dog. Shes better than she was. For example she's terrified of a broom or shovel falling and hitting the concrete floor. She panics the moment the butcher even drives by. Shes better than she used to be but I don't expect her to be perfect. As long as she can hide in the house she can handle fireworks and such without being drugged. To me that's what matters

Sting - you are so right about that.

@Sting, I just ignore the behavior and act normal, but that doesn't do anything.

I also desensitise my horses with the whip, so our dogs are fairly used to it anyway. It is a fantastic tool.

A huge thing is your reaction to it also...

We generally will crack the whip and then just get super excited and start throwing out treats, cheering and carrying on...soon they associate it with positivity and get excited about it.

Avoid things like "its okay" and petting them in a reassuring way..which sounds counter productive...but its all about body language. If you are happy and excited, they should feed off that...eventually

Athena - you could start out with 'poppers' and work your way up. That's what we've done.

Im crying right now. So IÂ’m currently sick with Covid in the guest room of my house and my spouse is running around my yard with a sparkler yelling “God has gifted me fire” just to make me laugh 😂

Freakin whole month of July is a firework fest in my state. We also celebrate our state founding on the July 24th which is just another reason for fireworks.

Eury has a point. Some animals are more sensitive than others too

Not to mention, there's plenty of people bothered by fireworks and it's pretty hard for them to be desensitized, despite understanding what's causing the noise

Athena, We train our dogs with a Stockwhip. Works well :)

Because it's hard to desensitize to something that's completely random...And if it was easy to desensitize to thunder and fireworks, there wouldn't be a massive need for thunder buddy vests

I'm working on desensitizing Nova. She can now handle drums but fireworks, thunder and guns are still a problem

It happens two times a year so it's harder to keep up with the desensitization.

A few years ago, the neighbors set them off over the horses' stalls.
We've got dry acreage all around us - so on the ready for fires.

The constant boomers and screamers can't always be tolerated - it freaks me out too

My cat is chill as a cucumber right now despite the chaos outside. Dog is drugged and sleepy.
