YNP #090: When Your Dog Hates the Rain
If you have a dog that refuses to go outside in the rain. you know how annoying and time consuming it is. It’s even worse when you’re trying to potty train a young puppy that isn’t going to hold it until it stops raining.
For most dogs they will learn to tolerate it but for others it may always be a struggle.
We know we should stay positive to try and change their association but when you’ve been outside for the 10th time in the rain and they still haven’t gone it’s hard not to let that frustration show through.
Different things will work for different dogs. That’s why in this episode I just run through a bunch of things to try to improve your pup’s relationship to being wet and cold so you can both spend more times inside the toasty warm house.
In this episode I talk about:- Finding the right rain gear.
- Creating a special place in your yard.
- Using a potty cue.
- Change their association with the rain and rain gear.
- Why does your dog love to swim but hates the rain (or their bath).
