......spoke too soon  ph34r  I think Scullap & Valerian has helped with distant firworks but the massive display just over the road was asking too much ......Livie (& Purdey too  :o ) went doolally .......so out came the cheese!!  which worked brilliantly - so thank you to Top Barks Mark for posting previously about it   ;)
If your dog thinks you're the best.....don't seek a second opinion!!

None of our dogs have ever been bothered with them. When I was at the flat I had to take Millie out after dark for the toilet and it was like a war zone, she didn't even seem to notice! I wouldn't take Charlie outside at night for a walk though as he can get a bit anxious and a bad experience would probably lead to him having a problem. Bit different when your in the house with the tv on!

Oooh I have just put a reply on another post about this!!!

I was really worried this year about Bonfire night as Cinders has only just turned 1 years old and normally she responds to any sound at the best of times (wanting to know where it has come from and what it is - not barking).  In the house when she has heard them she just stopped when she was doing and put her head on one side and then carried on as normal unless the living curtains are open and she sat on the back of the settee watching them out of the window.  When out walking she would sit down and look up to the sky watching them with her head on one side (very comical!!)  I am now one very proud mummy!!

One of my friends has to give her Staffie tablets at least 2 weeks beforehand as he is a quivering wreck!!!!
