Crazy fireworks and gun fire all around here every July 4th - before and after. My dogs seems okay with it. I worry about my kitties but think they hide in the garage.

Many years ago I had a German Shepard who went crazy at the sounds. She would topple any table to hide.

Gunfire too? Yikes, you must be in the countryside! I don’t have cats so can’t speak for how they act but I have some of my own ideas about this. I think a puppy is like a very young child and reacts to how others react.

When we used to have thunderstorms my Yorkie would jump up and I’d say, “It’s OK” and he would lie back down. Perhaps something frightened your German Shepard when it was young??
