 Sorry to use the f-word - Bobby
Fireworks.

Pup is now 20 weeks old and this will be his first fireworks experience. Any tips on how to get him through his first that will then work for all the following ones?

Already he is showing some anxiety around noises. Have taken him walks along busy roads which he was fine with, even sat on platform as trains passed by. But in the house, pot or bin lids falling or even the worse just now, you know how you shake a bin liner fully open to put it in your bin? He runs away when you do that - happy to sniff about the bag when its stationary in your hand but freaks at the noise.

The Dyson, he has kind of learned to accept it though still will move away from it.

Have heard different theories of taking him a walk so that he can see the lights to match the bangs, playing loud music to drown it out, and not to mollycuddle him when he gets scared.

Any tips would be appreciated.
