My dog, Charlie, loves to swim and goes nuts for the Crazy Daisy. But he won't go outside if it's raining. He plants his butt on the floor and refuses to budge—until I bring out the treats.
After all these years, I've think I've finally figured out why Charlie balks at walking in the rain. He can't bear the idea of being dried off with that old, faded beach towel.* It makes sense. After all, a distinguished dog like Charlie deserves a Soggy Dog towel, made just for dogs.

Actually, every dog deserves one—especially yours. Score one for your best friend by submitting the funniest caption for the photo below in the comments section.

*Sure, Charlie's really holding out for the cookies, but I'm still getting him the fancy towel.

My little dog sometimes walks on three legs when its wet out. at first we were concerned and had the vet give him an exray, but apparently the only problem is he hates to get his little feet pads on the ground when it is wet out

Well, you wanted me to go outside and do my business in the rain - this is the end result - what were you expecting?

Does the grunge look mean my hair has to cover my eye? I mean I can't see. I bet Kurt Cobain never had to deal with this...

Thats awesome! I need one of those. When i let my dogs out after it rains they play in the mud and when I open the door the run away as fast as they can! They leave paw prints all over the kitchen!

This is such a great idea! I'd love to have one for my dog. Maybe my cat could even get some use out of this. :)

IS IT RAINING OUT???? Whata think????

*Charlie was repulsed by the rain and saddened with the beach towel's roughness. Right after this photo was taken, the treats relaxed his oh so moaning stomach, he was dried off with his Soggy Dog towel and he ran outside dancing and barking at the gods for more rain.
