Thunder boomers!

We had a dog years ago that could hear thunder boomers a mile away.  She would smile with her tongue down to her toes.  Then she would pace.  Then it was time to hide and shake in her shoes till it passed.  Along comes Bella, all eight pounds of dog.  If is during the day she isn't too bad, she paces, but come night fall, she's a wreck.  From the time it started last night all she did was whine, shake and pace.  It wouldn't have been half bad but she was doing it on the bed.  We tried covering her up and petting her, nothing was working. The storm lasted two hours and for those two hours there was no sleeping.  As soon as the storm passed Bella laid down, put her head down and went to sleep.  We just looked at each other.  Wish it was that easy to go to sleep.....
