Do you get a lot of rain in your run? Is that ok for the chickens?

the sand around the edges gets a little damp, but it drys up pretty fast. The chickens usually will stay in the middle of the run when it rains, or go up the ramp into the coop.Do you get a lot of rain in your run? Is that ok for the chickens?
This guy's system of training a dog really works! http://www.canterlc.com/StopChickenKillerDogs/blog/
My coop's almost done! I've got the hardware mesh and surrounding pavers. But I'm still too scared my doberman pup is gonna get in. She's definitely trying! They will spend most of the day alone together in the yard so the dog needs to lay off and the coop needs to be safe! It's gonna have to happen because I can't have 7 chickens in my bathroom much longer! Any advice?
You have a good dog. The only time I have to get onto mine now is if the birds get wound up by something making a commotion then the dogs go into instinct mode and I have to remind them to behave!
Ya ducks and geese will teach any other animals real quick who the boss is.... lolMy ducks trained my cats. When they were babies they were in the brooder in my room. There was just two ducklings so it wasn't overwhelming. After their bath we would spread their towels on the bed to protect it from duck poo. The cats being cats were very curious would jump up and come over to see what we had. We would watch them very closely, they could sniff. But the ducklings let them know real quick if they were too close by biting their nose. We would keep a close eye out for retaliation but the cats ended up afraid of them. LOL.
What are the dimensions, and how many birds will go in it?
