I will seriously look into a thundershirt when he does. My paternal grandmother was very much afraid of thunderstorms and crawled under the big heavy dining room table when they hit. She didn't have any pets to instill her fear into luckily.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043376053971475659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2226876762714358061.post-30399496873060644592013-07-10T21:42:53.050-04:002013-07-10T21:42:53.050-04:00Yes!

Why doesn't somebody make one for anxious/nervous humans?

She pants so hard, I worry about hyperventilating, or a heart attack, or something. The other scared ones "just" crawl all over me and try to get between my back and the furniture. I only have just so much lap room. I have an Aussie who stays with me regularly. During the summer, he always arrives with his thunder shirt in his backpack. His people swear it works.Alixnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2226876762714358061.post-90650906866258155832013-07-10T18:56:58.594-04:002013-07-10T18:56:58.594-04:00Is this the worst summer yet?
