Holly is a 3yr old staffy. We have had her for a year and don't know how to deal with her problem.She is terrified of rain beating on the windows and doors. She starts panting heavily, shakes and just won't settle. She sometimes runs upstairs and hides in the bedroom. She was a rescue dog so we have no idea of her background but she obviously had a nasty experience. At this moment it is raining, not heavily, but she is unnerved, unsettled and just sitting in the middle of the dining room floor shifting from foot to foot. We have been told not to fuss her as this is telling her it's OK to be frightened, but how else can we help her?
