| I'm sure this is making her more spoiled right? So it's been hot here, but Uni doesn't really seem interested in drinking water. Granted we do have the a/c on in here, but still. Usually she drinks a few times a day. Keep in mind her food is HK and there is water added at each meal. I got tired of pouring little capfuls of water down her throat, so I started putting a tiny bit, about a teaspoon, of homemade chicken broth in about 2 or 3oz or so of water, and sure enough she will lap up all the water down to the last drop. So now she will not drink plain water, even if it's nice and cold. I've created a monster haven't I?

| Yupper. Pups need very little if any water on wet foods like that. Wouldn't even worry about it unless she starts to look dehydrated. Well, now she might hold out if she is really thirsty, so you might have a problem. lol

| Haha! That's why I'm afraid of adding flavor to Kaji's water.
