[nagdu] water intake question

[John Sanders]

Hi,
Mollie doesn't drink enough water.
I will put some water in her bowl and put it on the ground.
I will give her some encouragement to drink water.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
John and the always beutifull always gorgeous, Mollie

Hi, John,

I don't know about volume, but I know that Jenny drinks when she is thirsty; 
I don't have to watch her water intake like a hawk.  Obviously dogs drink 
more when it is hot, and their patterns can change somewhat due to stress 
and changes in routine or diet...
Does Molly drink freely?  If so, she will drink when she is thirsty; you 
just have to change the water every day.

Now, if she cannot self-regulate, that's a whole other story... 
unfortunately I don't have any advice, as I have not experienced it.

Daryl

Hi,
I have a question:  My dog is still a puppy. she is only a year old.
My parents think that I should give her 6-8 cups of water a day.
How much water does a guide dog need who is a puppy?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
John Sanders
