Resq TailsThe trials and triumphs of rescued dogs

The 24th of July this year seemed pretty mellow to me. Like I mentioned in the earlier post, they didn’t start off with the usual explosions at 6:00am, and the biggest celebrations seemed to be taking place in the next town over, not here. So, pretty much till 10:00pm it was just another day around here.

At 10:00pm we did start hearing some of the fireworks shows starting, but they seemed quieter than usual too. Rogue would hear them go off and run barking at the door like she thought someone was here, but it wasn’t like a panicky thing. Twist was similar. Penny on the other hand, seemed to content to lay on our bed. That is unusual for her! Her normal reaction when anything worries her is to get as close to myself or my husband as possible and then the whining and crying begins. Neither happened last night. She seemed like “ho hum, the young dogs are barking again.” It was great!

I can’t really say whether I think the Melatonin was responsible or if it was just a suprisingly quiet celebration around us last night, but either way, I’m happy and so are the dogs!
