Aversive and Appetitive stimuli

My dog, moe.bear hates the rain. (That's his name "moe.bear". Don't take off points for grammar haha). Therefore rain is an aversive stimulus to my pup. Even though he has to go to relieve himself, he refuses to get wet. He also fears the hose and the shower. I've linked a video demonstrating him with the rain.

One of my cats, Jetta absolutely loves cups of water as opposed to all the awful floor bowls throughout the house. In light of her just knocking over water onto my phone, I'll include an example of an appetitive stimulus as well:
