Dogs scared by noisy fireworks
Why, at 10.45pm do I have to sit with Sky News on full blast so that my dog doesn't have a heart attack? Why?; So that Wayne and Sharon can take little Chelsea Beckham to see the fireworks.

Fireworks are a menace. Full stop. Loud, irritating and worthless in every respect. Have fireworks become the new ego extension for the lower classes? 'Look how big mine is' and 'See how loud that was'...

| 29-11-2008 | citizen smith , I broadly agree with your point, but would stop short of a total ban, merely because in the past ten years, the present government has erroded our "freedoms" so much, that if we banned everything that caused us annoyance, it would be just another nail in the coffin of "...more | Hawkeye |

| 08-11-2008 | I am also annoyed by fireworks and would dearly love to ban them. I have a dog who is terrified & who won't go out to relieve himself. He is now reluctant at any time to go outside whereas at one time he used to be first out. I work in a school and see children who are excited by them - isn&...more | Annoyed Dog Owner |
| 07-11-2008 | Not so many years ago, Bonfire night or if you will Guy Fawkes, or even fireworks night was "celebrated" on the 5th of November, regardless of whatever day it fell on. But in recent years, it appears that date is now insignificant because people sem to have fireworks displays or let off fi...more | Hawkeye |
| 06-11-2008 | Why, oh why do we have to put up with this menace every year? My cats spent most of the evening last night (most of this week actually) shivering in the corner, too afraid to go out. Why can't people go and see their fireworks at a public display or at least take them to somewhere isolated and...more | Emma |
| 05-11-2008 | To all those who advocate banning/time-restricting the sale of fireworks - fair enough I understand why you feel the way you do.
The problem is simply banning them won't address the issues fully.
If properly made licenced fireworks are not available people might be tempted to make/use home mad...more | Safety First |
| 16-10-2008 | I hope the sad story posted by Freddie is enough to make some people think before posting facile comments like some of those made below.
I reiterate my point about fireworks being 'appropriated' by the anti-social element of society, a true shame for those of us, children and adults alike,...more | Spuddy |
| 16-10-2008 | Fireworks are okay provided they are in the right hands. The problem occurs when they are sold to youths as a plaything to be used on our streets for a period of several weeks in the late autumn.
I have no problem with them as an item, simply with those that use them wrong.
Some little turd cost...more | Freddie |
| 16-10-2008 | Government : Should ban the public sale of fireworks.
Supermarkets ; Take the lead & stop selling fireworks
Consumer : Boycott the sale of fireworks.
Result : peace & quiet, no air & noise pollution, less amo for the local retards.
...easy.
Bottom line : we cannot rely on dross New ...more | Deliverance |
| 15-10-2008 | "Fireworks have been around longer than you and I so deal with it"
What an unbelievably daft thing to say! | Spuddy |
| 06-10-2008 | So you dog can't go out for a shlt? .. Oh dear, how sad, never mind.. At least decent people don't have to tread carefully around the streets for the 8 weeks your dog is shltting inside your house as opposed to every one else's doorstep. | Everyone loves your dogshlt |
| 04-10-2008 | I'm glad the gov cut down on the sale of fireworks to just before the 5th and not after,before they did that we used to get fireworks set off everynight from 2 months before nov until about a month after new year,drove our poor animals and me insane,also every street/park was littered with all t...more | Silver760 |
