July 1. It's Canada Day. A national holiday. Which means all major businesses are closed, government offices are closed, there is no mail AND my human is OFF. Thanks Canada.
During big holidays like this, lots of events are scheduled. Parades. Picnics. Fairs. And fireworks. Which can be a scary thing for some dogs. Some people suggest wearing a Thundershirt if a dog is very fearful. In the Italian town of Collecchio, they take the well-being of dogs very seriously - they instituted a law that fireworks must be silent. They say it is to reduce stress for all animals - so I think it's a brilliant idea. Frodo and I have heard fireworks in the distance, and we didn't mind them - and we don't mind thunder - but we're lucky. We're probably just used to the loud sounds of my human shouting at me when I run off. Kind of like thunder.
Anyway, time to go and get my human moving on OUR day off. I have so much planned for her!
Happy Canada Day!
