Dog dies from train accident after getting scared by fireworks.

The family is still struggling with the weight of losing one of their beloved dogs. It's a feeling of deep sorrow and regret that they just can't shake off. This heartbreaking event occurred on Bonfire Night, a time when celebrations and merriment fill the air. However, for pets, it can be a time of great distress and fear. This is what happened to the two-year-old Bearded Collie named Mida, who belonged to the Kennedy family from Northumberland.

Michelle Kennedy, who lives in Berwick-upon-Tweed, shared their tragic story and is now urging others to be cautious during this festive season. It all began when her father, Michael, took their two dogs for a walk around 5pm, just before it got dark. He wanted to get some fresh air and exercise for the dogs before the fireworks began.

Unfortunately, their peaceful walk turned into a nightmare when the nearby caravan site started their fireworks display without any warning. The loud bangs and bright lights frightened both dogs, and they ran away in a panic. Michael managed to catch one of them, Dezzie, but Mida was nowhere to be found.

The entire community came together to search for Mida, but it was two days later when they received the devastating news. She had been hit by a speeding train and did not survive. The incident took place on Bonfire Night in 2017, and it still haunts the Kennedy family. The guilt and pain are still fresh in their minds, even after all these years.

Michelle shared, "The loss of Mida was unbearable for all of us, especially for my parents. My mom was deeply affected and still carries the emotional scars with her. My dad, on the other hand, is burdened with the guilt of what happened." It's a heavy burden to carry, and the family is still trying to come to terms with their loss.

New statistics have revealed that four out of five dog owners notice a significant change in their dog's behavior during fireworks season. For a third of them, their dogs are terrified of the loud noises and bright lights. It's a reminder for all pet owners to be extra careful and considerate during this time of the year. Let's make sure our furry friends feel safe and protected, even during the most festive of times.
