At the same time there are fireworks in the neighborhood. I saw a stand selling them this morning. As it nears the 4th of July, the night noises pick up. Lulu (on the left) is hiding in the closet. Nikki is ignoring them. When it gets too hard on Lulu, a neighbor suggested putting cotton in her ears. It helps a lot. She has bat ears. So hyper sensitive it is hard on her. Heaven help us if there is a fly in the house. Off to her hiding spot in the closet, or glued to my side.
The cicadas dont bother her as she seems to sense they are a natural phenomena...and they stay outside. Sometimes we sit out in the dark and just breathe the cool fresh air and enjoy the concert.
This picture was taken when they were younger, but they look much the same now, almost a decade later. Still the best dogs in the world.
