Everyone meet Link, an adorable dachshund pup who was brought downstairs three times, but he ended up running upstairs for a very valid and familiar reason. But it’s his attitude towards coming down that’s hilarious!
Link, the adorable dachshund pup doesn’t like the thunder at all because it makes the house rattle. He’s right because many people don’t like the thunder and when it comes to our fur balls, it literally scares them. But do you know why your fur balls are afraid of thunders and fireworks?
According to PetFinder, “Many dogs are afraid of thunder simply because they do not understand what it is. Dogs hear this loud noise and perceive it as something threatening. Some dogs try to go under tables, in bathtubs, or in any other places that make them feel secure. It is ok to allow them to do this. It is important, however, not to try to soothe your pet too much. Doing so can actually encourage his fear if he senses any insecurity in your voice.”
So how should we make it easier for them? They add, “During a thunderstorm, try to provide a background noise for your dog, such as TV or radio. This may help to somewhat drown out the noise of the thunder. You can also try to get your dog’s mind off the storm by playing with him. There are some dogs that require sedation when there is a storm. Consult your veterinarian so that they can prescribe something to calm your dog during a storm.” Now take a look at this fur ball’s reaction on page 2 below!
