This pic isn't my dog, but it shows how my Buddy looked when I wrapped him before the fireworks started. He was fine with it, and it really worked. Buddy was calm and even slept through some of the fireworks.

The linked article tells you how to do the wrap. It's so easy, I can't believe I never heard of this before now. Some Ace bandages come with velcro closure, others have pointy metal clips.
