If so can I recommend giving them Melatonin. I use it myself occasionally if I can't sleep and have given it to my last two frightened terriers on Bonfire and Halloween nights and they were totally calm. Not sure yet whether my new little chap is frightened of them but if he is he'll get a 1mg tablet as soon as I notice he's not happy.
If you are interested I'm C&Ping the dosage info.
//A general rule of thumb for melatonin dosage (up to 3x daily) for dogs is as follows: Dogs less than 10 lbs should be given 1 mg. Dogs weighing 10-25 lbs should be given 1.5 mg. Dogs weighing 26-100 lbs should be given 3 mg. \\
I hope someone finds this helpful.

I would have thought a dog would pull them straight off Woofy? Mine would.
Another thing, how does my dog know I am looking at him when he's got his eyes shut? The minute I looked at him he opens his eyes and stares straight back LOL.

I wonder how many more before they actually do something Woofy.

No absolutely not, not even thinking about it. We'll get there in the end. Another lot has just started going off here even though it's been quiet for an hour or so. Thought it was too good to be true.
