GREENSBORO, N.C. — The Fourth of July fireworks were popping all weekend and all across the country.
While they may be festive, they also cause local animal shelters to fill up, with so many pets running off scared of the loud noises.
Michael Haygood and his Rottweiler, Dakota, have been inseparable for the last year. Mike is a fireman in Greensboro and while he was working this Fourth of July holiday his sweet Dakota got startled by the fireworks and went missing.
