There Is No In Between The Raindrops

The rain didn't come til late yesterday. It is raining this morning and the wetnosedogs, except Jenny, don't want to go outside. So I open the door, encourage them and it rains. Wetnose Bella and Roscoe look at me like I'm a bit crazy.
So we wait for the rain to slow down.
Wetnose Jenny likes the rain. Wetnose Bella and Roscoe do not.
Ah, the joys of wetnosedogs that don't like the rain.
Anyone have tips to coax the dogs outside? Please don't say pee pads. Those wouldn't work.

If I had dogs, I would run outside and coax them out that way. I would laugh and talk with them like children.

@RasmaSandra ,
Yeah, the rainy day weather is not fun for cats, either.

They would love that. Surprisingly, the wetnosedogs did go outside eventually.

@wetnosedogs Have enough problems with Sid. He saw all the rain today and plopped down to sleep in the kitchen. Every time I went in there he was meowing for attention for food etc.

I'm assuming if they have to "go" bad enough the rain won't stop them from going outside.

Ally won't go out in it either.
Maybe a huge bag of cedar chips?
What if ya take an umbrella n go out with em, I mean eventually they're gonna hafta pee.
Or, stick em in the tub and tell em "Pee Rosco but squat pleeze" .... I know, bad idea.
Well, those were my only ideas, sorry bout that.

They are too heavy. I can't lift them in the tub. They did finally go out. I was surprised cause Bella does not like rain. And I do go out with them. I think they want me to have a sweeper to unwet the grass.

I don't have a clue. Both of my dogs don't like to go out in the rain. Right now, we live in an apartment and have to take them out on leashes so they have no choice. maybe a leash would work but that would mean you would get wet also.

@wetnosedogs I don't know why dogs don't like rain. I guess for the same reason my two don't like baths.

@simone10 .
Wetnose Jenny is the only one who will go out in the rain. Bella and Roscoe don't like it at all.

I uh, pick mine up pack them outside, sit them on the porch walk inside and shut the door. Then I stand just out of sight and watch to be sure they give up and go, then I let them back in. lol

@wetnosedogs 2 boston terriers and a pom, the pom is NOT tea cup, he's a throwback, the size they were before they were bred small, so just as big albiet much lighter in weight. He is not the problem too often. It's the old fat bostie I gotta assist outside, lol

I was just looking on the web about this. Go outside with them, which I do, but they are refusing. So I'm doing the right things. They'd rather wait for it to stop.

@wetnosedogs As long as they can wait without having an accident, I guess it's all good.

When you gotta go, you gotta go. Rain or no rain.

@wetnosedogs We all procrastinate, but some things are too important to wait for.

the pup that's a constant companion don't like to get wet, the cat could care less. she'll stand out in the rain/'r snow 'n 'talk' to the pup 'til she goes outside's well. 'course, she'll not do such 'less she's really gotta go, lol. otherwise, its suit up 'n take her out. i aint ne'er used those pee pad thingies. to me they're kinda like those pull-up diaper thingies fer young'uns 'n jest show laziness. but then, i aint wired proper :)

well, i'd probably just try to move them outside myself if they won't go. shut the door long enough for them to do their business. then let them back in. good luck

@wetnosedogs (1367), Our old chocolate lab, Cody,he hates to go out in the rain, and he has to walk down the deck steps and then back up, and gets all wet. He will stay in until he just can't anymore.. and at night we have to drag him outside, like an old donkey. Sometimes we call him Eorye, or is it Aeorye, You know the old lazy donkey in Winnie the Pooh :: smiles ::
