It's Raining in Vancouver

Finally, we are cooling down after completely dry and blazing hot June and July. First night I could sleep without portable air con noise, and under my quilt.

But the dog is horrified. She hates the rain. I just took him out. He pulled all the way to his favourite spot to wee, and when done he turned straight around and pulled back. Poor dear does not like rain drops on his fur. And the performance shaking once we got back under cover!

It gave me a good laugh. And we really need the rain.

Does your dog hate rain like this?

Yep. Usually needs a shove to get over the doorstep the 10 steps in order to pee under trampoline!

Spudpup is unbothered. Spuddog didn’t mind walks in the rain, but refused pointblank to go out for a bedtime wee if it was wet! He had an excellent ‘Are you mad?!’ face if you tried to persuade him Grin

One of my labs detests being rained on. Pulls backwards, refuses to go out, even treats will not entice him.
Take him to a pond, river,, beach, large muddy puddle and he’s straight in there. Put him in a warm shower and he will stand with his face into the shower head for ever 🤷🏻‍♀️

Elmpup loves the rain and water in general. Biting the water when I'm filling a watering can from a waterbutt is one of her favourite games!

Aren’t they funny? So different.
You can almost see one of mine walk on tip toes so as not to get his feet wet while another would sit out in pouring rain in a force nine gale all day if I’d let her.

It’s raining in stirling Scotland too, my dog just came in soggy and miserable looking. It’s cold 🥶 he then shook all over me
Fun times

They are very funny. Mine is now lying on his favourite chair sulking. You would think the world has come to an end. Me on the other hand am celebrating the end (for a few days) of the awful heat.

He was worse this past winter when we had snow. Absolutely pathetic. He was refusing to stay out long enough to do a poo. Dipsy doddling around trying to head back in.

Mine will only go out in the rain if he has a coat on so I keep an equafleece jacket by the back door for him .

Our pup hates the rain but loves to swim in the sea or rivers 🤷‍♀️.

DramaDog is a complete diva, she hates the rain. The looks I get when I'm trying to get her outside for a wee, I swear she rolls her eyes at me. Then she demands a rub dry when she comes back in. Such a princess.
