Our dog is, like, "Where's my next meal? Oh, there it is. Okay, everything's fine." He gets apprehensive over loud, sharp noises and when the vet comes at him with a needle, but that's about it.

I hope everyone's dog & cat make a smooth transition. I'm sorry for what happened to casita's dog. What a tragedy.

CFrance I think you are right on.
