Our dog Baylou has a strange behavior linked to thunderstorms. He is absolutely terrified by them and tries to crawl into the deepest part of the cellar, and woe to the door that blocks his passage. When the storm is yet in the distance, he begins to tremble all over, literally quivering in his doggy boots. Today I returned home after being away during a brief thunder shower to find the casings and door knobs torn off the doors in the basement apartment and part of the jamb and wall chewed away. Upstairs their was a crazy pattern of pee around the hardwood floor in the living room. His bladder completely lets go on the sound of thunder. Once after a rumble in the night, we heard the flood gates open as he stood trembling in the middle of the bedroom floor.
It is a mystery to me why he reacts this way to what is just a noise and as far as I know not associated with anything actually bad happening to him. It is a problem because he becomes so destructive.
