I have an old dog who's gone crasy over thunder. Someone sent me a link for 'thunder dog coat's'. I will see if I can find the http://www.thundershirt.com/post.
It was thunder shirt. My dog would freak out with this, but it might work with a younger dog.

I am in the city limits also. Noone seems to care anymore who they bother. I understand the fireworks on the 4th. I really don't understand the attraction to firecrackers. Makes absolutely no sense to me. Why waste your money on something that makes noise and isn't even pretty????
