I am getting an injection in my knee this morning.
Ow.
Also, I don't think of Rojo as actually being all that angry. She actually seems pretty level-headed to me. And she has a nice sense of the absurd.
For my frown, I found one of my dogs chewing on one of my favorite bras. THE BLUE LEOPARD PRINT ONE. I don't care how anxious she was about the stupid storm outside, you do not trash the blue leopard print, damnit.
On the plus side, excuse for bra shopping.

Have you ever heard of those weighted vest thingies that squeeze/put pressure on the side of your dog when they'd otherwise be totally freaking out? My friend who has two corgis uses them during thunder storms to keep them from going apeshit and there's like, sorcery sewed into the lining, they work that well.
Yeah, I've seen the Thundershirt. I've seen more mixed results. Some dogs seem to love it and but at least two I've observed had absolutely no idea that it was supposed to keep them calm and just went on freaking out.
Usually my dog just goes under the bed and that's that until the end of the storm. The bedroom door was closed this time so she decided, apparently, to make her displeasure known by raiding the laundry room for blue leopard print awesomeness.
The link in Nikki's sig (http://forearmsrace.tumblr.com/) was nowhere near what I thought it would be. I am disappoint.
Thundershirt worked pretty well for our dog during the fireworks last Fourth of July. I got a little freaked out myself because I thought maybe it was restricting his airflow and that's why he was sleeping through all the booming. He survived with a minimum of anxiety though.
Obviously you females lack a manly enough presence to keep your dogs calm.
