Or you can mop my floors after walking my dogs in the rain without their raincoats.
And when it is icy and they put salt on the sidewalks, it can severely mess up a dog when they lick their paws, so they wear booties in the winter. We actually had a dog come in vomitting from ingesting the salt last winter when we had the bad ice storm.

Exxxxxactly!
My dog's coat is longer than a short-haired breed, which makes it even more important to me that she has a raincoat when it's pouring outside. I would rather take the raincoat off, and dry it out than have her shaking all over the place and looking like a wet rat.. haha
I started my dog on the coats and booties early in life and she was a little resistant at first, but when she realized she wasn't getting wet, she warmed up to the idea
