Remolacha Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I believe Val is a card carrying member of the “this dog ain’t rite” club. She just spent 10 minutes wandering around the backyard in the cold rain. I finally went out and called her in, she was soaking wet. She has never minded getting wet, and thinks the 50’s is the perfect temperature, but come on old lady! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus also, she has a *very* thick coat - like a lab! - and it takes for-ev-er for her to get dry!!! I'm with Mark - I don't need that kind of negativity falling from the sky!!!!

Time4ANap Posted December 24, 2021 Author Share Posted December 24, 2021 Update - This is Mark's first real rain since he's been here. I have been at the door with a towel to dry him off each of the times he went out in the heavy rain. I just walked outside after it stopped raining to check the rain gauge (we've had 1 1/2 inches of rain since about midnight) and Mark followed me outside. When we came back in, he walked over and put his nose on the towel, and waited for his rub down. The rain had stopped - he was already dry. Quote Camp Broodie.
