My Jack is a Brussels Griffon, a small dog, but pretty big for the breed. My other Griff was 8 lbs., Jack is 24lbs.! He's 14 now, but he's always hated weather. Even when he was a puppy (I adopted him at 5 months, pet shop rescue), if he even heard rain outside, he'd back right up from the door, same as he did today. It didn't help when the first snowfall of the season was 34 inches(!) and he had a good sized area cleared for him, but the "walls" were 3x as tall as he is! So he's been reluctant to go out ever since.
