| I do! At least my mom does. Her schnauzer hates getting his feet wet and refuses to go out when it's raining or has just rained. You could try rain coats, umbrellas, booties or training pads. Sometimes you just have to clean up the mess. Thankfully it doesn't rain where we live that much and she has no carpet in her house. |

| Mine were never trained with pee pads. Do you think they might use them. They are 10months and 6months? Do you take them up when the rain stops, when they are willing to go back outside?

| Yes, we have the same problem with Romie, especially with all these hurricanes since moving to Southwest Louisiana in June. We have been doing like many others and using the pads. |

| I've never tried taking Meeko out when it's raining but, he doesn't mind going outside after it's just rained. It actually like to run through the puddles. Lucky me lol

| Mine hate the rain too. They go both outside and inside on pee pads too. It took longer to train them for both, but we get an awful lot of rain in England, so it's worthwhile. Hugs Shirl x x

| I have to fight with both dogs to get them outside in the rain. I figure If I have to go out with them at least they can come without too much of a fight LOL. They have rain coats but I think that makes it worse with the sound of the rain on it. At least Baxter is so light that he isn't too much of a problem, I just carry him, but Zeke at 20 lbs is a different story. He will hold it for a day if he thinks he can avoid the rain. But yet they both LOVE the snow.

| Add My Guy Johnny doesn't like to go out when it's raining either. If I put him out, he runs back to the door so I put on my rain gear and take him out on a leash and put him in the grass but he immediately runs back to the door so I keep the leash tight. I'm thinking of putting some kind of awning or canopy for him to go under. He likes his baths.

| Thanks everyone! I have a large overhang off my garage.I showed them that there is no rain there but it still doesn't work.When I put them out they just sit at the back door where it is raining,and cry to come in! Don't figure. I guess I'm gonna try newspaper or pee pads and see how that work. I'm just afraid that their gonna think it's okay to potty inside all the time. My 10month old loves the snow couldn't get enough of it, hopefully my 6month old will be the same way. Thanks for all the ideas! Guess what it's not raining now hehe... time to go potty!
