When I first had the Working Cocker, I used to take him out for a walk at the first sound or sight of firework. He's 13 years old now and it has never bothered him. The Springer is scared witless by them (and by shotguns) I firmly believe that a combination of exposure and what Zero says. The Springer was well and truly spooked by our neighbours letting off fireworks when he was a youngster - he's not been the same since, he's frightened by noisy television explosions...otherwise he's not in the least "nervy"
