I thought they were burglars.

Last night I heard terrible noises coming from the terrace near my glass door. I woke up and called Luna.
I was very angry that she did not bark. After all, she is supposed to take care of me.
I got up and when I looked through the window I discovered that said burglars was just a terrible wind. I was not going to be hand tied or worse. And after a while the wind stopped and the rain started.
We are in the middle of winter. U don´t like it at all.

Sometimes the wind blows so hard here, the whole house rattles. It sounds like someone is on the roof. Winters here are more wind and rain than snow. My dog Blue barks like crazy when the wind blows like that. Honestly, he barks when leaves fall from the trees too, lol. Luna must be smart and can tell the wind from a burglar

She is. She does not like people walking in front of our house either.

I don't even like people walking in front of my house. Luna is a good girl.

Luna was wiser than you. She knew it was just the wind and did not bark

@marguicha Absolutely true, the past two weeks of July were not at all hot, a May temperature I would say.

I think that Luna is not afraid of wind. So she did nothing.

I am sorry you had that scare. I am surprised Luna did not bark at the storm.

We get bad winds here, too. They can catch and pull at the storm windows on our house, making a lot of noise. (That's why the construction guys are supposed to replace them but are waiting for the window company to make custom storm windows for us.)
I always hate it when the winds are that strong.
I'm glad you and Luna are okay.

I'm glad it was just the wind. It has cooled down here; and we received some much needed rain. Winter is coming sooner than we would like.

I am certainly glad to hear that there was no burglar! It seems you can count on your sweet Luna. Give her a pat on the head from me!

Yes, I feel cold of winter season and that it feels me so discouraging "cause my work will all be stop, what i did always have a thick blanket to cover me all the time and always lying in bed to relax, feeling warm is my best and comfortable to move every now and then outside and inside the house.
