What a wonderful description of Julie watching the fireworks! I wonder what she thought it was all about. Good thing that she gets used to it, if the stadium is so close to your house!

Personally I am NOT a fireworks fan - in fact in South Africa during the 80's they were banned during the drought, and I was so sad when they were un-banned again. The noise is so much more intense for animals than it is for us!

One year, the morning after Guy Fawks, I walked into my lounge only to be greeted by a Brindle Staffi. (Which was a huge shock to me, as I didnt own a dog at the time!!).

It actually belonged to a neighbor doen the street, and had panicked and ran out of their yard when the fireworks were being set off. One of my hubbys friends was living with us at the time, and he returned home from a party at around 2AM, so the only thing we can think of is that the dog sneaked into the garage, and then into the house, when Mark was parking his car!

Suzy (the Staffi) was reunited with her family the same day! They were so pleased to see her.
