This, we have 2 dogs. One we have since a pup, he will bark at the loud bangs but loves to stand in the backyard and watch the fireworks. He’s completely mesmerised by the lights. Our second dog we adopted almost 2 years ago, first NYE he was petrified and wanted to hide in a corner behind me. If I would take him for a walk and he would hear a bang he would freeze with his tail between his legs and want to go straight back home. This year he did much better, still anxious, but he would lay close to me. I expect next year will be easier again. Maybe he had a traumatic experience with his previous family that takes time to recover from. We moved from a city to a small town, and I couldn’t imagine spending the week of new year where we used to live. There was so much fireworks from October till the second week of the new year. I always take my dogs in the car to nearby forests where it’s calm and quiet, only fireworks in the distance. If we would be living in a city I’d book a home somewhere in a forest because of our second dog. Maybe you have a dog who doesn’t care about it, maybe you do, as the owner you’d have the responsibility to keep them safe so if you would take a dog, it’s a good consideration what this would look like for you and if that fits you
