"Rain, Rain, Rain Came Down, Down, Down..." -Sherman Bros
I used to love it when it rained...
Now I just look out the window and scowl. Rain means the puppy (did I mention we adopted a puppy and a kitten just two weeks after we moved to the United Sates?) will want to go outside twice as much as normal. It means most of my day will be spent dropping whatever I've started so that she can be wiped off with a towel (did I mention that there's a lot of towel washing going on here?).
I have taught her to wipe her feet, which begins with her digging at the towel and then rolling comically all over it. It's funny enough to watch and it earns her a treat.
OH MY STARS, a lightbulb moment- I think I just figured out
why she goes out twice as much!
We have one very smart, cheeky little lab.

Yeah, not her most flattering photo.
