Hi We have just been for our normal evening stroll or pull and tug as it often is and as it was raining Poppy and me got rather Wet..i attempted to dry Poppy and she went absolutely mad running round like a mad dog barking panting it was horrible...had to wrestle with her and stroke her until she had calmed down what a nightmare any ideas??
Re: Wet Dog on the post fox poo washes Digby has had he charges round the garden like a mad thing when wet - think they just love it
Re: Wet Dog If she was scared of the towel or the feeling of being rubbed dry then you might need to very gradually get her used to it, with lots of treats. e.g. just hold the towel and give her treats, then if she is ok with that move the towel towards her a little and give her treats. Slowly work up to touching her with it, then draping it on her, then moving it slightly when it is on her. All with treats provided she is calm. Dogs can get very hyped up when they get wet and have a towel off. Most love it. My placid old dog, Nicolae, used to turn into a whirling dervish of excitement when the towel came out. I reckon he got wet on purpose just so he could have a 'dry off'.
