...after being out in the rain, even if you only have one little drop on you!  Lucy is such a prissy girlie girl that she needs to be towel dried after she's been out...including her paws.  She sees the towel and comes running.    She even holds her paws up for me to dry them for her. 

Now even Molly, who used to run away when I tried to dry her off is asking for her turn. 

Nope, my girls aren't spoiled one bit...not at all.

My Brindle and my Jo insist on being dried after being in the rain, after being in the fog for that Matter! they are not Ratties, but Boxers are particular also. They just have to have their face completely covered and rubbed all over, too.

I have a rat terrier and after she gets a bath, everytime she runs to the couch and dries herself off by rubbing her back on the couch and rubbing her head on the couch. I think it's kind of disgusting, so we make sure we dry her off with a towel first

Thats cute Lisabeth. Zoey wont go out in the rain. She'll just pee on the sidewalk.

That is cute. Nibbler loves being rubbed down with a towel. And then will wait so I can swaddle him like a baby. He'll be content for about 20 minutes, then has to do the rattie 500 to finish drying off.

Ratty doesn't like being wet, I swear he's a gremlin. But he is not too fond of a towel either. Cameo doesn't seem to care if she is wet or not, but she will let me bundle her up in towel and carry her around like a skin kid.

Gremlins, don't get them wet and don't feed them after midnight.

Bingeaux doesn't mind being wiped down with the towel, but he hates it when we try to wipe of his paws. He does this weird kicking thing to let us know he is not happy. I usually let my wife do the drying off. According to her, I never do it right anyway, haha.

Do you think there might be some ticklish paws there?

Too cute! Romy has his own special towel, and if I forget to dry him off, he'll find the towel and bring it to me!

There's a rattie for you.

Sam hides whenever I'm going to give him a bath. He'll run and cower behind the couch, and when we chase him down, he rolls on his back and won't get up. We have to practically drag him out.

Amos doesn't like to get a bath, but if he gets wet outside from being in the rain, he doesn't act any different.  He doesn't like my blow dryer either.

Waylon doesn't care for getting a bath, but I think it's because he hates having his ears wet!  As soon as he gets out of the tub, I always hold a towel up for him and say, "Let's get your ears!"  He immediately throws one ear at a time in my hand so that they are the first thing dry.  (This is a great trick for getting him to stop right inside the back door to dry off after being out in the rain too because he's always up for getting his ears dried!)  It's crazy how particular these dogs can be!    Waylon has also gotten accustomed to being dried with the hairdryer.  So now every morning when I'm getting ready for school, he comes running into the bathroom so he can have his hair dried right alongside me...
