Today Kiwi experianced her first thunderstorm (or at least her first one here). Before the rain started, I brought her into the backyard with her harness to let her hear the thunder and see the lightning. She sure didn't react to it like some dogs I know, who won't come out of hiding till half an hour after the storm-- but she was curious. It was more the rain she didnt like. When it started to pour we ran back inside.
After we came in, Kiwi was very excited about all the things splating against the window and ground. She pounced on them for a while (not knowing it was one of the things she hated most--water). The storm is just ending now. I love thunder!
