Golden Retriever Remains Calm During Fireworks Practice for 4th of July

As the 4th of July approaches, many pet owners are preparing their furry friends for the loud sounds of fireworks. A recent video shared by "Golden Girls🐶 Pepper & Ginger" showcases a golden retriever named Pepper undergoing a unique desensitization practice. The video captures Pepper calmly chewing a bone on a couch while a television screen plays simulated fireworks sounds, with an on-screen prompt to "INCREASE THE VOLUME GRADUALLY." Despite the increasing noise, Pepper remains "completely unphased," demonstrating a remarkable level of composure. This method of gradual exposure is often recommended by animal behaviorists to help pets cope with noise phobias during festive periods.
