What is it about some dogs and water that they can’t seem to get enough of it? Certain dog breeds, such as Labradors, like to run through water and even swim in it.

Others meanwhile, like this dog here, simply like to sit and watch it fall from the sky in the form of rain.

When it rains, it pours

Liquid precipitation, rain falls to the ground after the clouds overhead become saturated with moister. Rain droplets come in all shapes and sizes, but one thing is for certain, no matter what its size, the rain gets everything it touches wet.

Not all dogs like the rain

Whether a dog wants to be in the rain depends on its mood and other factors. For the most part, dogs love it when they get to spend time outdoors, rain or shine.

Even the dogs who don’t like playing in the wet stuff might be content with watching it, as is the case with the dog in question.

Watching the day pass by

In a video, the dog is shown peacefully sitting by as the rain comes down.

Instead of rushing off to find something else to do, he has taken it upon himself to slow down and just enjoy the day.

He’s become an inspiration for many who’ve watched the video to do just that.

In the video, the dog relaxes with his hind legs crossed behind him, seemingly without a worry in the world. He seems to be lost in another world as the rain falls before him, content on staying in the moment.

Taking time to enjoy life

The lesson from the dog’s actions is to take the time to enjoy the simple things in life, something which many people seem to forget with their busy and hectic schedules.

SO, the lesson seems to be to take time out of your busy schedule, relax, and enjoy what the world has to give.

Some interesting facts about dogs and the rain?

In many cases, a dog’s love or hate of rain can depend on the breed. Labradors and other water-type dogs can’t seem to get enough water in any form.

Others, though, might hate getting their paws wet, and might even refuse a walk in the rain, or go outside to use the bathroom.

Smells are intensified

Another reason a dog might love the rain is that the moisture in the air tends to amplify scents a lot more.

This means that they can smell scents better, which is great for dogs who love to sniff for wild animals.

Should you let your dog sit in the rain?

In many cases, it doesn’t hurt to let your dog sit out in the rain. It is probably best to keep them inside when it is pouring, but allowing them to go out and enjoy a light rain is okay.

Providing adequate shelter for your dog to retreat to if they want is the best thing to do for them.
