*touch wood* our pup seems oblivious and our cat has never been bothered. Tara, our last dog, used to literally climb underneath you. She was petrified :(

Depends on the dog I think. They all react differently. Most hide :sad:

He/she's just scared
My dog is terrified :( she was out the other night and one went off so she decided to lay on the ground and not budge I had to end up carrying her.
I normally put the music on loud if there is a lot going off or if i'm going out on bonfire night I leave the radio on loud for her.

Thats like mine too, she's going as far as the door then just looking up at me as if i'm stupid for even thinking she's going out :laugh:

Yes, ours is, I have him with me at present though so I will keep him occupied if any are set off.He gets very depressed at bangs etc;
It's quiet where I am so maybe there will be none, there wasn't any as I recall last year.
My cat hates them, normally ends up hiding under my bed

Don't think so, but he's scared of coming downstairs cos some went off (already :bored: ) and we were like "SOOTY! Come see them!" and he whimpered cos he can get up them but not back down :joker:

I have one of those and he was crying all night. He's supposed to be tough, yet my girlfriends dog (some little rat thing thats about 2 inches tall) was fine with it, we even put it on the window ledge so it could watch them :conf:
Something not quite right there

My last Staffie was terrified. Our pup Staffie now is fine. I hope he stays thats way. It's horrible to see them so frightened

We lock our two little cats in the house for a few hours because we are frightened for them. We think they will run off. They end up pacing around the house and windows trying desperately to get out.
