Do you walk your dog when it rains?

I ask because my dog don't care if it's raining,he wants his walk.Sometimes I'll walk him in the rain with an umbrella,but I don't like walking him in the rain.He has to go either way.I have to say I never see other people in my neighborhood take their dog out at all on a rainy day.I wonder if they let their dog go on the floor or something.What about you ,do you walk the dog out in the rain?

When I wake up and see it raining, I tell the dogs we're not going today. Luckily we have a fenced in backyard that they can relieve themselves without me having to take them out for a walk. They'd still enjoy walking in the rain I'm sure - it's me who doesn't.

I wish I had a fenced in yard,but I don't,so I have to go too.A fenced in yard comes in handy.

I walk my dog in the rain mostly because she wants to go. I keep a towel by the front door and wipe her down when we come back home.

Thats a great idea.I hate when I come back my dogs paws are all wet from him walking in the rain.If I don't take him out he'll become a nuisance,so I have to.

I do not walk my dog when it rains, wet dog does not smell very good in my opinion and I would rather not get rained on myself.

I don't like the smell of a wet dog.I don't like walking my in the rain,but I pretty much have to,he becomes a nuisance when he has to go,and I don't take him out.

My dog goes nuts in the snow.He starts running when there's snow on the ground and gets all playful.He doesn't care what the weather is,he loves to go outside.
