I don’t think he’s seeing anything in the water; when he’s doing it, he just looks like he’s playing / having fun.
He also has a long time habit of dropping his toys into his food and water. There’s almost always a toy or two sitting on the counter drying out after a dunking — and more now since he started playing in the water.
I guess I’ll just keep trying to stop the water play with firm “no”s. What I don’t want to do is give him some kind of attention that he considers a reward for playing in the water. Or make him hate baths even more than he already does by making him associate water with a negative consequence. |
They don’t make the one I have anymore but when I was testing new food I bought and used these
