Until I was in my early 40's I was ignorant of the fact that fireworks hurt animals. I knew they were frightened by them but I thought it was just for a moment not a fear with a lasting effect or one that could end their life. I did not know that dogs freaked out until one fourth of July almost 20 years ago when I was lighting off bottle rockets one of my neighbors attacked me, then threatened to kill me had I known I never would have let them off. I love animals, I do not believe that a human life is more important to that of a fur baby. I wonder if the law the President recently signed "Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture Act-toward Animals" could be enforced to stop fireworks shows because it could be considered torture?  Poor dogs howling in pain as their ears are sensitive to the loud explosions, every time there is a Fireworks show Animals run away from home even some that are secured in homes get out and run away and run into traffic getting hit. There are Veterans who are also bothered by Fireworks not all Veterans but some are for some people that claim to be patriotic and a hundred and ten percent behind Veterans  they sure become selfish when it comes to Firework Shows just my opinion which I am entitled to....HERE IS YOUR SCANNER REPORTS.

Wow! I ordered some gifts from this place called Gypsy Rose on the 2nd of this month sent them a check, the gifts were not totally expensive and quality I got most of them on the 10th I did not expect them so soon. Anyway they have Hippie Stuff and clothing mostly for women not very expensive and Quality goods if you're looking for last-minute gifts. I'm very impressed. Check them out if you like. The other day I went nextdoor for water, a woman was parking a Porsche SUV she looks back at me with my walker as if I was going to steal that piece of junk. I noticed an old Aero Star  van parked next to it and if I had my choice I would take the Aero Star any day over a Porsche any kind of Porsche Aero Stars Rule in my Book. The Book of Roger.

You're not alone in your feelings about fireworks. At my house we hate the damn fireworks shows. Our lives are much calmer and happier now that we have two dogs who are not noise sensitive. But every July and December we still worry about the animals who are afflicted by loud noises and end up ------ like that dog killed on Hwy 101 ------- fleeing in terror for their lives.***********We had a friend years ago whose beautiful, gorgeous, wonderful Aussie shepherd leaped over an 8' fence and ended up dead, miles away, hit by a car on Hwy 101. Years ago, a woman told us about her big Golden retriever who crashed through her large plate glass living room window, ran off down the street and was hit and killed by a car. Roger, they are not our kind of people, those who don't get how many animals are affected severely, negatively and selfishly by fireworks being set off. My family and I would vote joyously to ban fireworks completely here in Santa Barbara.

My friend owned an AeroStar. In the end, he was using a screwdriver to turn the ignition switch. Deferred maintenance to the max. He ran that poor vehicle into the ground and then sold it.

I love Aero Stars had a boss that had one I drove it all the time doing deliveries etc and tore it up a bit not on purpose there's a pretty funny story to it I ought to tell it one of these days.. I think alot of folks would rather we not have fireworks for the safe of the animals and some folks who are sensitive to explosions..And there are some who do not care they don't know what it's like to hurt nor do they care. They might someday.

I had a wonderful golden lab years ago...a champion frisbee dog....airborne somersaults on the beach , etc. He had epilepsy that would be set off by certain thinGs, fireworks being one of them. We lived in Carpinteria at the time, in the neighborhood across from the high school. The 4th of July fireworks came and he took off running. Fortunately he had tags. At about midnight I get a call from a fella that just got off of an oil crew boat. There used to be a phone booth at the end of the Carpinteria oil pier. Buddy (my dog) had found his way over the Linden Avenue bridge and out as far away as possible. He was still terrified but intact. Whoever that guy was, thanks for the call.

Is there some way to protect pet's sensitive hearing from fireworks (or other) loud noise if you know ahead of time? Some sort of strap-on pet headset so they couldn't claw it off when it was needed? (Not being factious.)

I watch the fireworks on TV, ones at the Washington Mall. Many years ago my cousins took their big white dog to the fireworks, opened their van door and the dog ran off. My aunt was heartbroken, she put out ads, called Animal Control, etc. Finally a woman called and said there was a white dog under a vacant house next door. My aunt went there, it wasn't her dog but a really skinny German Shepherd. She took it home, put out ads, called Animal Control but never found an owner. Later still someone found my aunt's dog. Then she had 2 white dogs!

It is now possible to order fireworks that don't have the "bang" components manufactured into them, and some cities are now using them. Silent beauty.

I asked a guy in Pet Smart who had a big white dog how he or she fared during the fireworks he said he just got the dog the day after and TBA....I think when I see people with fur babies I will ask them directly.
