Same with Buddy. Buddy is relatively new at this though. As a puppy, he didn't care what was going on, he was just happy. Now he hates thunderstorms, fireworks, etc. But it's still new so in his mind, fireworks are the start of a thunderstorm. He was okay overall though last night because it didn't last super long and the fan was a nice distraction. I had it on full blast so he hardly heard the fireworks.

No, we just stayed home and watched the fireworks on TV (A Capitol 4th in Washington DC and the Macy's Fireworks Display in New York). We didn't want to deal with the crowds.

Teresa and I just got back from our 3 mile walk and man, it was hot! It's time for a shower now!
Good deal. I didn't even watch the fireworks, now I kind of wish I would have.

3 miles in the heat/humidity. You guys are dedicated! I am impressed. I don't think I could even go there in that heat and humidity.

That's totally understandable that this is all new and scary to Buddy. I'm glad that he was okay though.

The only thing I like about those programs are the fireworks themselves. Everything else is a boring waste of time.

Teresa got up late so we went late. She just said "Let's not do that again!"

Thanks! Glad Goldie is okay, too.

I can imagine. What do you guys drink to hydrate? Water? Sports drink?

What do you guys have played for today?

Jerry, have you seen this commercial? I get choked up seeing it. It reminds me of when we first brought Buddy home. We got him from a breeder but the breeder's house was in the country and it just reminds me of how excited and hopeful he was on our way home.

We went out to dinner at our favorite seafood restaurant in town. We're going to walk again at 8:00 PM.

We both had grilled red snapper with grilled vegetables and dirty rice. It was delicious.

Goldie always cracks me up! We keep the toys we buy her in our bedroom walk-in closet, and she knows they're there, so now if we walk into the closet, she jumps up by where the toys are, expecting us to give her a new one, and this morning, she barked by the toy bag until I got one out and gave her one!
