| Scooter will not go outside when it is raining Hi everyone. I hope all are well and good. Our Scooter just turned 3. I wonder if my Scooter is the only one that will not go outside to pee pee in the rain. He is always walked 2-3 times a day and usually does his "business" then. But....when it is raining , he sticks his cute head out the patio door and backs back inside real quick. It has been a problem lately because we have had a lot of rain here in Oklahoma. We have tried everything we can think of. Like today, my husband went home at lunch to take him out. It had quit raining. As soon as he got him on his leash, it started to pour rain. I am worried about him holding it all day. Any suggestions, anyone ? |

| My pom was that way - you would have thought he was going to melt. I just put the leash on - walked a looonnnggggg way from home, put him down and made him walk back. He would usually do it somewhere on the way back. Plus we held the umbrella over him, we'd wear a rain coat. Baxter loves the wet grass, he'd roll in it if I let him. |

| Bailey will go out in the rain now. What I did was carry her a good distance from the door. Then I put her down and with the rain falling on her and her running, she was forced to pee. Now the only time I have trouble is when it is coming down in buckets. |

| Gus won't go in the rain, but if he has a raincoat on with a hood, he's fine. I know he doesn't like getting his head and face wet when I bathe him, so I can only assume it's just because of that, and that the hood solves the problem. Buy your baby a good raincoat and see if that works. |

| I know exactly what you mean. Zoe doesn't like the rain or the snow either for that matter. She never has an accident in the house but once the snow gets here, I'm not as confident! As for the rain, we've had a lot but she can hold it for awhile. She will go out quick if it's not raining too hard but otherwise she just looks at me like forget it mom, no way I'm going out there! |
