[nagdu] rain rain, go away!

[L Gwizdak]

Ha Abby, I'm back! LOL!

Dogs don't naturally like to wear raincoats and booties.  We have to train 
them to wear these things.  If it is pouring out, I do have a raincoat for 
my dogs and I don't use booties for rain.  Yeah, some dogs hate working and 
parking in the rain but they must.  Be cheerful like a cheerleader for the 
dog while you are working in the rain.  Get them excited and have a kibble 
or two to encourage them.  For me this isn't too much of an issue.  WE don't 
get much rain and many times I can choose to wait til it stops or use 
paratransit.  If we need to go out in rain, well, there's the raincoats for 
both of us!

Hi all! Wow, I’m feeling like a big mouth on the list lately, so if anyone 
gets tired of me, let me know! :)

Anyway, I’m noticing my puppy hates the rain. She refuses to work and it is 
extremely hard for me to get her to hop up or listen to me (even with the 
addition to the GL)

She doesn’t like to wear a rain coat, and she doesn’t like boots either.
Anyone have any ideas or rain jackets for dogs that the dog won’t 
necessarily mind?

Thanks,
Abby
