My guess because we just read of the seizure stories online but 95% of dogs are ok with it. Mine is. There's a limit to dealing with edge cases that most people have. Not saying this is how I feel or act though. | ||||||||||||||

We have three dogs of different breeds and ages, none of them handle fireworks well. They don't have seizures, but one of them turns into a quivering, shaking mess and the other two try to hide under couches and beds. I wish they were okay with it, but my wife and I have to plan our 4th around the dogs because of how they react. | ||||||||||||||

My dog, now passed after a long and happy life, loved fireworks deeply. It was his favorite day of the year. He would chase and pretend to bite, bark, and run around with joy. To be fair, I am quite certain he was an outlier. | ||||||||||||||

I think you’re probably right about people’s feelings on the matter. Though in my experience dogs that are ok with fireworks are the edge case. | ||||||||||||||
