One of the things I love best about my dogs, is their chameleon-like qualities. When I’m tired and don’t want to do too much, they are pretty happy to take a quick walk, and then cuddle up around the fire, or a good snuggle in the bed.
But when I say, “Hey Delilah, we’re near our old stomping grounds, and it’s raining, but will you walk with me anyway?”
And she practically runs the path, pulling me along through the pouring rain, then jumps in the car, both of us soaking wet.
That makes me smile.
You make me smile (or laugh), the sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do, that brings a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.
That is the best thing about having a dog as a fitness buddy, no matter what, we are always happy to go along with you. Humans might wimp out because it is cold or wet, but we are ready!
Lol. I hate walking in the rain, so does Merlin. He will even jump over a puddle to avoid walking through it, but loves rolling in wet grass after a walk. Go figure. What annoys me most about wet dogs is how they have to lean up against you when you’re towel drying them. Why must they do that?
We doggies do know how to go with the flow. And trust completely. And dance in the rain. And live in the moment. Take a lesson from us doggies – and from Jodi, humans! There’s a lot to learn here.
Love and licks,

Sounds like you had a great time in the rain!
Dogs do have a way of reading our minds. A walk in the rain can be so much fun
Yup, dogs will go and do whatever you want, they don’t care about the weather!
Now, the two of you soaking wet….that made ME smile!! I hope it was a warm day!
Heh, heh…you both wear that wet look pretty darn well.
They are amazing aren’t they?! My two are on either side of me right now, fast asleep. 😇❤️
Love it! Dogs are the best and most loyal Pawtners in Crime a girl could ask for! (but mine are not a huge fan of walking in the rain, Hammy doesn’t even like to get her feet wet)
walks in the warm rain with lily who loves to splash in puddles and rejoices in the feel of the rain on her. brings out the puppy in her still.
sweet memories with more to be made.
