I remember my Hysson's first exposure to rain. He was born in June in Santa Rosa, CA so of course had never experienced rain when I picked him up in early October. It was also a very dry fall in western Oregon, so he didn't experience rain until mid-November. I wish I'd had my camera handy to record the baffled and disgusted expression on his face when I let him out in the back yard the first rainy morning.

He still acts rather disgusted (what I call his "California dog" expression) in the first rain of fall, but he gets over it a lot faster!

The weather folks say the storms we're getting here in the PNW right now (more wind than rain) are going to dump most of their rain on California. I hope it helps!
