I am always checking his bowl and it seem to me that it hardly goes down. I am constantly putting fresh water out for him and it's just not appealing to him!lol
I am just worried that he will let himself dehydrate
Please...any suggestions??!! |
When my dogs won't drink I add a lil organic low or no sodium chicken broth to their water. I put about 1 or 2 TBsp of broth to about 5 oz of water and they scoff it up. I had to learn tricks bc of Daisy's health issues when she has an episode she stops drinking and eating then gets dehydrated and in the hospital. The chicken broth works every time!! also i would give her frozen green beans for a treat and they get water through that. Good luck~Joyce
