Canada Day

July 1st is Canada Day and the parties can be epic! There are of course fireworks coast to coast to celebrate our fine country. This year was no exception. I went to the Forks (locally meeting spot where 2 rivers converge together) to watch the fireworks. I took Sophie with me.


Now here I will just add a quick side note. Every year, dogs run away during fireworks. This is from fear of the loud noises and large crowds. The noise is very loud for a dog and may hurt his ears. Or he may get scared and become traumatized or bite someone. Always take precautions with your dog during fireworks and know how your dog handles different situations.

This being said, I know my Sophie. She has no fear to noises and does well in crowds. She got lots of attention from people - until the fireworks started of course! And she actually watched some fireworks herself, seemingly curious as to what the bright loud lights in the sky were. Near the end when the finally was at its loudest I gently covered her ears to muffles the sound a bit. But all-in-all she was an amazing spectator!


Happy 143rd Birthday Canada!
