Is it wrong....?

[happy2Bme]

....to get PO'd when you try to do the Christian thing and take your dog out in the pouring rain, during a pre-tropical storm, in the pitch-black dark, so that she can poop (because her eyes are bulging, and she's doing the "doo-doo dance") and she won't poop, and only wants to go back inside because it's raining?

Now understand, please, that said dog loves to run in the puddles, ditches, bay, etc., but gets "prissy" when she gets a few drops of rain on her! And like she gives a &*$# (actually, that's what I WANTED her to do) that I'M getting soaked! It's just not right......

Irony.....what a concept.

It's okay. I have one that won't go in the dark. I have to have potty pads downstairs in the basement for that.

Why can't you just turn some lights on outside?

Sweet Pea won't poopy in her yard. We walk twice a day: rain, snow, sleet or shine! Better to walk them than to leave them outside in the elements.......

That's what doghouses are for - to keep off the rain and the wind - the Scooterhounds even have body heat activated heaters to keep them warm on cold nights.

I tried getting The General in a dog house that was big enough for all of us. After throwing bones in there and he still sat stubborn as a Hound and stared at me, I crawled in to show him it was groovy.

Never got used and when I sold that house, the dog house stayed.

All that BS about "third time's a charm" is just that!!! I gave up, and put her in her kennel, and told her to make due until "mommy" comes home! Mommy has the patience to take her to that "special spot" (even in the pouring rain), and clean her little tootsies when I'd just as soon cut them off and BBQ them! As I told my wife.....our little angel's in a bad spot now in that she's the perfect size (at about 80 lbs) to be the "fur coat" my wife always wanted, and still young enough (at just about a year) to be still tender victuals. I come from the boonies....where a pet is a pet only until they are dinner......and being PO'd makes me hungry.

:rofl: Mental image of you sitting in a recliner scowling at a wet dog!

....with her scowling back with the "you are a total "$&^!bird" look at me...... With a wife and two 9-year-olds, I'm used to it.

Rain poncho, still drying out. Daisy won't go in our yard either. Most of the time that is a good thing. Not last night!
