Shannon Gross Six Simple Ways to Reduce Fourth-of-July-Fireworks Anxiety for Your Animal Friends

I’ve been living in the same house for a decade now, and I love it. The back yard slopes down into a pond (okay, an architect friend of mine calls it a water feature but to me it is now and always will be a pond); we are blessed with a plethora of wild critters who live in and ramble through our neighborhood; and the neighbors are nice and quiet.
