Our JRT hates getting his paws wet. He refuses to go out in the rain to do his business unless desperate. He leaps puddles where possible or balks, turns tail if not. He's not brilliant at rain but it's wet paws that he detests.
Being the size he is, we can force him or lift him. But it's really v silly. And it's not as though he wasn't brought up in rain, a farm in the Peak District isn't the driest of places.
Tips? DS, complete pushover, wants me to get boots for him!!! ( hoists bra, no self respecting dog....)
