Okay here is my 4year old. Her name is Savannah and she's a very sweet gal. Only problem is she freaks out during thunderstorms. Up in the bed, goes into the corner of my bedroom, scratches at the wall like shes trying to dig a hole. She pants like crazy and her heart is beating so fast.
I always know when a storm is coming b/c she'll usually go to the corner of the room and stare at the wall an hour before it gets here. Once the thunder/lightning comes is when she starts going nuts. What should I do. I've tried putting her in a few rooms w/ TV and stereo on, but it doesn't work as she doesn't like to be left alone. She will just scratch and pound on the door until I let her out.
Vet gave me some pills for her, but I've yet to try them out. I'd rather not, but I might have to next time she keeps me up all night.
Thanks,
Clark
