will be 7 in October. He never used to react to storms, but now he hyperventilates and tries to climb into my body. Just being next to me is not enough. He just freaks out. Earlier this year we had one storm that went on for well over an hour, lots of thunder, and he was inconsolable. Our other dog, Charlie, goes under my son's desk and sits on his feet.

He (Neo) never in 6 years had a problem with thunderstorms. Now like has been said he tries to crawl into me, pants heavily and won't settle down.

What is up with these storms? Seems different to him somehow. Wonder if it's climate change thing. Whatever it is, it's strange AF as my adult kids would say.
