Welcome to the forum. 
Sparky is a beautiful girl! 
Someone just posted a link on another thread to a page that has additional tips on what to do for dogs who are afraid of thunder/fireworks, etc. so thought I'd post it here as well:
http://www.pets.ca/dogs/tips/tip-73-...d-loud-noises/
I think the desensitization tips in particular would be worth a try.
