Chow Chow (Detailed Introduction)

　　When the New Year arrives, Chinese people like to set off firecrackers to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. But for dogs with keen hearing, aren’t these firecracker sounds too loud? Here, the editor counts three things dogs fear during the New Year period.
　　1. The firecracker sounds bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new
　 Dogs have sensitive hearing and can feel fear when sudden loud noises occur. Moreover, as long as the sound persists, dogs’ emotions cannot stabilize, and the owner’s comfort will have little effect.
　　2. Beautiful night sky lights and fire
　 Many dogs are afraid of flashing lights and fire. For example, fireworks, searchlights, and even the moment a match is struck while smoking can startle dogs. Like the fear of sounds, it is an instinctive alert to natural phenomena.
　　3. Things dogs find hard to understand
　 Sometimes, dogs’ fear is caused by phenomena they find difficult to understand. Toys that make bird or animal sounds and move, doors blown by the wind when no one is around, or an open umbrella can all make dogs feel eerie and fearful due to their incomprehension.
