It's booming out there right now and that asshole dog Jack is laying next to my chair shivering and shaking with his head stuffed under the bottom shelf of my end table.
Poor dog, he's usually fearless, but he's scared to death of thunder. I usually give him 100 mg of Trazadone to calm him when we get thunder and lightning, but we're supposed to get a brief respite in a little while with more severe storms coming tonight, and I don't want to double dose him. The best I can do right now is to pet him and talk calmly to him.
