If it is a manual transmission, then push the accelerator pedal down more when you release the clutch.
If it is an automatic transmission, then you probably need to get the transmission serviced. If you think the transmission isn't the problem, then get your engine serviced. To tell which is the problem, put the car in neutral and let it idle. If it is idling on low RPMs (less than 600 for gasoline, 800 for diesel [varies with car engines and age]) then it is the engine. If it bogs down when you take off from a dead stop, then it would probably be the transmission.
When a car bogs down, it puts quite a bit of unnecessary wear and tear on the engine, leading to more expensive payments. I would take your car into a mechanic shop and have them look at it.

My Car bogs down when you give it gas mostly when it rains?
check to make sure the distributor cap is not cracked. check the spark plug wires are no arcing off metal or each other. just make sure they are not touching anything - if they are, use a spray bottle with water and spray it over the plug wires while the car is running. if you see little sparks and your car bogs then the plug wires are the problem.
Why does a Car bogs down when cold?
In a cold engine, the fuel that is introduced to the air to create the fuel air mixture sometimes does not fully evaporate, resulting in incomplete combution, which in turn reduces power.

It could be not getting enough air, if the filter is pushed too far down on the pipe, it would cause it to do that.
