How nice was it to wake up to the sound of rain!

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 7 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I did not get that experience.

Instead I got rained on halfway through my morning dog walk. Mr Woof got a touch soggy, and when we got home he had to wear his bathrobe while he dried off. He was not happy about it, tried to remove it himself and got his leg stuck and unded up with a short trial run of being a tripod dog. All is well now, but it was a drama filled start to the day.

Poor Mr Woof suffering all those indignities. He may need a treat for all the trauma.

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 5 points 4 months ago

Once he was freed from his tangle he had breakfast, so I think he's all good now. And the cool weather means he will be getting evening walkies too (after missing out on second walk quite a few times recently due to excessive heat) so that will definitely help him heal from the trauma.

I'd love to see a doggy bathrobe, potential cuteness factor is high

Mr Woof may have felt hard done by, but he looked kyooot while being oppressed...
