Well, a few of my friends & their families asked me to go to this huge park on Independence Day to have a picnic/BBQ and to watch fireworks...The thing is, every year, my family and I have an ordinary BBQ with barely any fireworks (it's illegal in my state, helicopters actually fly over the houses to make sure that we're not lighting them up). Our celebration is nothing THAT special. But then after we eat, we just go inside, and after that, it gets really boring... I don't know which to choose. My parents don't care. The thing is, I've heard that sometimes, people shoot guns and stuff just for fun on that day (to liven up the party I guess). So that's kind of dangerous. I also don't want to leave my dog, because she's really afraid of fireworks, she'd whine and hide due to her fear of them. What would you do? Should I just go with my friends and just forget about my dog & our (boring) family tradition? Or should I just have the ORDINARY BBQ w/ my family?

I give you a star for this great question! I can tell that you care about your family and your doggy or you wouldn't ask.
I think you ought to try to get your whole family to go along to the park and you can ALL do something really fun!
If they don't go, I say YES! ABSOLUTELY go!
Please don't worry about guns, you will be fine!
As for your doggy, she will be fine too! I am afraid of lightning when it starts popping around me too close, but I am fine when it is over, your doggy will be fine too! She will be scared if you are there or if you are not there!
I vote for you going and having the time of your life!
Have fun and enjoy the celebration!
From,
Alan

Why won't you invite your family to the picnic/BBQ thing with your dog and then bring the dog back home when its the fireworks (maybe thats when they start shooting their guns).

try going out with your friends this year, if you find that you don't like it as well then next year stay with your family. don't completely forget about the dog either, try to do what's best for her, it might mean leaving her with family but she just might be happier.

Your celebration will only be as good as you make it. Invite some friends over, play music, play games, and get out the water balloons and sparklers.

your dog can live with you the rest of her life with you and she will have fun times with you....
Now, if your friends get bored over and over and over again at your house then they wont like going to your house and may shun you from friendish activites. so i say go to the park and leave your dog alone,she'll get over it.your friends may not.

Unless you try new experiences throughout your life, you will stay within the boring box.
