Please consider saving your loud fireworks for theΒ  4th of July instead of shooting them off on another day. This will result in less suffering of animals and Veterans. If you are shooting off illegal fireworks, you will be less likely to get caught on the 4th as there is protection in numbers. Last year my family endured 9 days in a row of illegal fireworks. This resulted in a dog that is now worse than ever before with fireworks despite following all the recommended advice and I got only a few hours of sleep a night for those nine days. Please be considerate of your neighbors, I love fireworks too, but 9 days in a row is too much.
