Mum and I was out for a walk this afternoon, and mum had planned a loooong walk with me. We didn't get very far though. I decided I didn't want to go any further. What happened was that suddenly there were these lout bangs, and I got really scared and refused to walk. I lied down, and then another loud bang came. Mum got really upset, not with me because she knows I'm scared of bangs, like around new year when there are fire works. She got upset about the fact that some people have no respect for animals and other people who are afraid of loud bangs. She said it sounded like a small cannon, and it came from a little island in the river where there were some sort of fair going on.
Mum tried to convince me to keep on walking, but she had to turn around and take me home because I was not moving and she wouldn't drag me along. The rest of the evening she tried to take me out a couple of more times but as soon as we'd crossed the street I'd had enough and refused to walk. I only lifted my leg and that was enough for me. I'm not going to risk getting scared again.
