Thunderstorm shaking and woofing are a thing of the past.
That was some storm last night! Bit slept through it and so did Dresi.
But I was hugging Bitty before bed and gave him some head scratches and he bumped my hand for more. He did that all the time when he was a younger pup - couldn't get him to stop. He didn't do it for a few years and now he's back to it, although not with the vigor of before. Funny how what used to be annoying as hell is now cute.
Kinda like kids. Man oh Man, there were many days I wanted to kill my kids for behaviors that I now smile at when I see kids doing them. I do try to offer some words of encouragement to their parents, as I remember that occasionally someone would do the same for me back in the day. Could have been more than occasionally, but many of those days are a blur.

Blurs. I feel ya.
Storms never really bothered any of our rotties and I think Buck is okay with them too. Our son and his soon to be wife's dogs, one of them (the Australian Shepherd) is a pile of nerves and they have to medicate him and he has some vest or something. We had a neighbor with a GSD that was off the scales and they had to DRUG him or he'd go apeshit. I was dozing off sitting here so went and crawled in the bed around 9:30ish. As can be expected in a cursed life, I couldn't fall asleep in there. And as can be expected in a cursed life, around the time I did is when the first storm rolled in and first bolt of lightning landed nearby. One of those ones that go BBOOOOMM!! Had to pee anyway. Popped an Ativan and waited for it to do what it do, hoping the storms would serenade me back to sleep. Not so much, unfortunately.
