I guess I only worry about Eddie and Princess as I still intend to put saddles on them. I think Princess may be 52?

I wonder if it makes a noise we can't hear when it vibrates.

Not only horrible to listen to, but so very dangerous. My dog, Tessa is so traumatized by the fireworks that go off. So many bad things happen to pets because people have to see 15 to 20 minutes of fireworks. I have come to dread the 4th of July and New Years Eve. I don't blame you for wanting to rant. I hope you and your friend Farm Buddy and all the animals are ok. I think Emma is such a beautiful girl. I cannot see her girth so we ladies try and hide it with Spandex!
