That is what happens to Buddy too!!
All I can do is use cardboard to cover the glass on all of my doors and windows that he can reach (because he tries to break them out) and try to keep him down the basement with all the lights on and TV and I also run the vacuum to cover up the sound of the thunder.

When he was on Ace I was giving him 3 at a time but then it started to effect his breathing so now he's on Valium. But it doesn't work every time.

Sierra can and has slept through thunderstorms and fireworks! You'd think she'd help him calm down!
