Why are dogs afraid of thunder
Golden Retriever (confirm introduction)

We often hear that children are afraid of thunder and firecrackers. Later, we found that many dogs are also like this, especially afraid of thunder. So why are dogs afraid of thunder?
When a dog is afraid of being struck by thunder, he will burrow under the floor or desk, as long as he can get in (this is because the den in the wolf period is a hole), and will often tremble with his whole body and his ears pressed behind his back. , if there is a lightning strike and there is no suitable place in the home for shelter, the dog will rush out of the house and its whereabouts are unknown.
If a service dog is afraid of sounds (such as beacons, explosions, trams, cars, sirens, etc.), it cannot be used as a hunting dog, shepherd dog, police dog, guide dog, etc. (watching dogs are not counted). On the contrary, it is not afraid of other sounds. Perhaps Lei Sheng's words have continued the nature of his ancestors to this day.
The reason why a dog is afraid of these sounds is that the owner overprotects the dog, or does not let it go out to interact with the outside world within 90 days after the birth. Therefore, the dog will be afraid of people, things, and things except the owner. To solve this problem, it is best to take your dog out for walks more often, and when thunder occurs (if the owner is at home), it is best to turn up the volume of the music so that the dog does not hear the thunder and is afraid of it. Until then, if things go on like this, it will develop the habit of not being afraid of thunder. If there are many people in the family, they will gather together to talk to the dog heart-to-heart, so that he can be distracted and ignore the thunder. If you appear very nervous, then the dog will definitely become more nervous. Over time, the dog will understand that being struck by thunder is not so scary.
