[Dailydrool] storms

[Teresa Maag]

Bev,

I think I have Cooper's twin...Rowdy is an absolute mess during a storm.  He 
pants and drools so much I think he is either going to stroke or die of 
dehydration.  I have tried absolutely everything and nothing helps.  I too 
agree that there isn't a piece of food out there he would eat during a 
storm.  You could cook him his own steak and throw him a party and he will 
not even give it a sniff.  He was in such a panic last night, and it was 
just heat lighting, there wasn't even thunder.  He will just sit there and 
watch for it.  I have to put him in another room so I can sleep otherwise 
it's up all night with a panting drooling basset that you can't console.  He 
would crawl into my skin if he could get in there.  Please let us know how 
Cooper does with the thundershirt, cause if he does well, then I can hope 
that Rowdy will do the same since they are identical in reaction.  I will 
wait until the rescues get them so I can order from them.  He never used to 
be scared, and I don't know why over the past 3 years he has become so 
frightened.  I use Benedryl if I know it's coming ahead of time, but we get 
pop up storms here in Ohio.
