My family had a large outdoor dog that we only chained on the 4th of July. He was a big, dumb lovable mutt that was terrified of fireworks, thunderstorms and other loud noises. (My sister found him the day after the 4th when he was a puppy.) Always knew a storm was coming as he would try to slip into the house when someone opened the door. And a struggle to put back outside. Would have loved to let him stay in the house until the noise had passed, but eight people in a four room house didn’t leave much room for a close to Marmaduke size dog.)
