Right now, there is thunder and lightning outside and my dog is freaking out. He is a 2 year old Shih-tzu. I'm trying to calm him down by talking to him and cuddling him but he just keeps shaking and panting and crying. He is shaking so bad it's making this hard to type. Does anyone know of a good way to calm my dog down a bit more? I feel so bad that I can't do anything else for him. =(
I have the same problem with my chihuahua. I find that a room that is very quiet, like a basement room or middle room with no windows, is somewhat helpful. Cuddle the sweet baby up in a blanket, or if he doesn't like that, throw it over your head and make a tent for the both of you. Then all you can do is hold him, pet him, talk to him, try to take his mind off of it and hope the storm passes quickly.
And I know you feel stressed when this happens, try to be as calm as possible because the little guy will pick up on it and become more agitated.
