There have been thunderstorms all week, and it has always intrigued me why some dogs fear thunder and some don’t. Lenore doesn’t even seem to note, she just dozes right through even the loudest storm. Frieda gets visibly rattled – Rose hated storms and shivered all through them. Frieda stays close to me, her eyes seemingly pleading for some explanation of the world behaving strangely. Dogs have such greater hearing than humans, I can only imagine what thunder seems like to them.
