rainy season and Penny is going crazy

Okay so the rain start again on Sunday and since then Penny has been going crazy. We live near the sea in Bang Saen and every time it rain the whole soi is wet and she want to play in the puddle every single time. Last week she come back looking like a mud monster lol, my wife almost kill me.

The problem is the condo lift. The security guard is very nice but he is not happy when Penny jump into the lift with water all over her. He say it is slipery for other people and he is right, I try to hold her back but she is too strong for my arm. We now use the back stairs but it is 6 floor, very hard for me also.

I try to dry her with towel but she shake water on the wall, on the sofa, even on the TV one time. The vet say it is ok to wash her every few days, but not every day or the skin get dry. I buy a dog shampoo from Shopee and it smell very nice, Penny is not happy but I am.

Some people in the building say we should not let dog out in the rain at all. I think that is a bit too much. She is 6.5 years old now and the rain is the best day for her. I just need to find a good system with the towels and the stairs, that is all.

Anyone have a good trick for the muddy paws? Thank you.
