Ever since the night a couple of weeks ago when the glowy rumbly eyes came to our house I’ve been really, REALLY afraid of the rumbly flashy wet things.
Last Saturday My Margret posted this on her Facebook page.
“What a night! 4 rounds of storms, 5 if you count the one now. It must have been some storm when our transformer blew 10 days ago because Bessie pup didn’t want go outside last night and she usually leads the pack.
She was very scared of the storms during the night but I put a blanket around her and Greg and I took turns hugging her tightly and petting her while she hunkered down in between us. The measure of her fear is that she doesn’t like blankets covering her, and she usually sleeps on the floor unless she is trying to wake us up.”
Well we had another storm last night right when we were getting ready for bed. I didn’t like that one either. My Margret put one of My Greg’s shirts on me.
I kinda liked it but my sister Belle tried to take it off of me (she does stuff like that). So then it got all tangled up and I didn’t like that so My Margret took it off of me.
Then I jumped up on the bed and tried to get under the blanket. My Margret pulled it up and around me then she and My Greg took turns petting me. I would lick them to remind them whose turn it was.
My Greg also closed the curtains so the light flashy things wouldn’t be so bright and had the box that plays music turned on so the rumbly noises weren’t so loud.
My Margret had her lighted board thingy on and My Greg would ask her how much longer the rumbly light flashy thing was going to last. So she would tell him “it’s got a long way to go” and finally I heard “it’s almost over.” He didn’t have to ask her when it was done I told him that when I jumped off the bed and went to lay down by my sisters.
I’m really tired so I think I’ll go take a nap now.
~this is Bessie “the I REALLY don’t like rumbly flashy things” Pup for the rest of the pups and kitties.
These summer storms can be scary, Bessie. Perhaps you could talk your My Margret into getting you something like a Thunder Shirt. I have heard how well they work in calming nerves of pups like you, sweet girl.
Hi Mrs. Amy! I heard My Margret talking to My Greg tonight about getting me a thunder shirt. I hope it`s not rumbly. ~nose nudges Bessie Pup
No not rumbly, it just gives you a loving hug when it gets rumbly outside. ❤
Oh that sounds good, Mrs. Amy!
One of our great-sisters was quite storm=phobic. It helped her to have the lights and TV on.
Cammie!
Hi Cammie! Those are good ideas, I’ll let My Margret know. Thank you! ~ nose nudges Bessie Pup
Oh boy, I got tired too just reading about what happened! Glad it’s all over! I hope it doesn’t happen again!
Hi Mia! Thank you, I hope not too! ~ nose nudges Bessie Pup
We sure hope yous are done with storms for awhile! We have had storms the past few evenings – very unusual for us.
Your Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
Hi Guys! I hope so too. I’m sorry you`ve had storms too. Hopefully they haven’t been bad. ~ nose nudges Bessie Pup.
I’m so sorry the stormy stuff scares you so much, B. It’s a good thing your parents know what to do to help you through it.
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Hi Cupcake! They try really hard to help me feel better and are always coming up with new things to try. ~ nose nudges Bessie Pup
