Most dogs just hit it without warning.

One and only earthquake I experienced was the 2011 quake that originated in DC and was felt as far as NYC.

I was working at home in my apartment and on a conference call.

Suddenly the TV in the living room was rocking side to side. Took me a few seconds to realize it was an earthquake.

Looked over at the dog on the couch. She looked back at me, put her head down and went back to sleep.

I decided, if the dog thinks we’re fine, that’s good enough for me and I’m not going to worry about it.

Still weird to remember the building literally swaying back and forth.
