| Bottled water or tap water Which do you give your babies? I've heard that city water is bad for them because of all the chemicals. |

| I give my furbaby bottled water... I don't drink from it because of it's cloudiness in my area, so I wouldn't chance it on my lil one...

YT 500 Club Member | I give mine both. If I'm out of bottled water I have to give tap. We live in the foothills of the Smokey Mountains have the best water I have ever drank. Yum!

| Cody gets bottled water, and he's fussy about what he drinks, he "has" to have Poland Springs, he's not picky when it comes to food,go figure. There is to much chlorine in our tap water, I can smell it, Cody will not touch tap water.

| We have an artesian well and we have a filter on the fridge water and the sink so that's generally what me and the pups drink.

| Our water supply is not the greatest, so we use a Brita filter for the drinking water.

| Bottled water. Filtered if bottled isn't available. Tap when it's the only choice and obviously needed. |

| The water in our town is not so great. Strange when you consider that the springs where Zephyr Hills is drawn from is not that far from here. None the less, we all drink bottled water here, furbutts included.

| Bottled water for my girls. They drink more often when it's bottled rather than tap.

| I guess Emma gets both. If she needs water and the faucet is running I give her that, if she needs water and I'm getting water out the fridge she gets that.

| I give filtered water because we live in a new-ish condo and the water tastes differently than when I lived in a house (think they chlorinate it more in condos?); so we all drink filtered. Otherwise tap. Never bottled. Have you guys seen the few bottled water documentaries out there (think there's a couple on Netflix)? It's a horrible industry that I refuse to support, especially since Vancouver's tap water is practically the from the same source (if not better) than the bottled water we sell here! Though, where you live determines whether tap water is good enough. I understand in some places, even filtered water is unfortunately not that good, so you have to resort to bottled.
