Storm Phobias in Pets

This week marks the beginning of spring. While the warmer weather will allow pet owners across the country to venture outside more with their four-legged friends, it will also bring thunderstorms, which can be frightening for our pets. Dr. Terry Curtis, a clinical behaviorist at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine, discusses ways to treat storm phobias in our pets.
