Can You Walk Your Dog in Rainy Weather: A Dog Trainer's Comment
It is believed that only the owner does not want to walk the dog in bad weather, but no one asked the dog whether it wants to go for a walk in the rain or not.
According to experts, in some cases it may actually be better to reschedule your walk, and here's why.
Not only the owner, but also the dog can catch a cold in rainy and cold weather, warns the head of the Russian Cynological Federation Vladimir Golubev in an interview with MK.RU.
To whom it concerns
Rain is not the best time to walk for miniature dog breeds, short-legged breeds, puppies, older dogs, and hairless dogs, especially if they do not have special clothing.
If the dog expresses displeasure, then you should not insist on a long walk either.
But even overalls do not always solve the problem of walking.
Some dogs are in no hurry to relieve themselves in the rain.
The fact is that in rainy weather, odors become more intense, which makes it difficult for the dog to choose a place for the toilet.
Otherwise, if your pet doesn’t pay attention to precipitation, all you can do is monitor its condition during a walk.
