New Year’s eve–especially in the Philippines– is a love-hate relationship. Basically, we are thrilled at the joy of welcoming a brand new year full of brand new experiences, opportunities, blessings and possibilities. What we do not like however is the impending threat to our beloved animals we love and care for so dearly.
Yes, it’s that time of year again, when our furry little love bugs would hide and scurry their furry posteriors in the closet, behind the fridge or anywhere they feel safe.
Why do dogs hate firecrackers?
Based from what we learned from an article on PoochPalsPetCare (.com) dogs hate firecrackers obviously because of the high intensity sound. Dogs have very sensitive hearing and they hear firecrackers 10x the intensity of how us humans hear it. Also, we humans understand it, the sound and all, based from society. We also connect it to something cheerful and joyful but our pets, do not.
