Apres moi le deluge
Oreo slept all day after being awakened this morning by thunder, lightening, and a 30-minute downpour. He leaped about three feet straight up abut 4:30 a.m. (I only jumped two feet!)
We used to live in Chino Valley & our 2 Rotts used to dive under our bed @ the 1st clap of thunder, monsoon season wasn't their favorite! Good luck to poor Oreo!

Father -- Try only to jump for joy. Otherwise, you might frighten the dog...
Kind of a dramatic way to wake up. I like a good, intense thunder storm every now and then.
