I have adopted a dog from a relative - long story but dog is happy with us right now and I don’t want him to be unsettled. He’s a small terrier is about 5
I walk him every day but he hates morning walks and just wants to go back home
And he won’t walk at all if it is wet out and is hard to get to go for a wee in the garden without a lot of coaxing
It’s rained all week and although I have made him go for at least a short walk, he’s really unhappy about being wet and I feel mean about making him. But then I am worrying he’s not getting enough exercise if I do not.
He lets me give him a bath without any fuss, he is a good dog. And I play with him indoors a lot
Does anyone else have a rain hating dog? Do you make them walk or just let them be until the weather improves?
