How to Get Your Dog

to Drink More Water

water struggle

Getting my dog to drink has really been a life long struggle. I have tested so many tricks and tips and most of them simply didn't work. Imagine a dog who loves to eat but absolutely detests drinking.

Flavor your dog’s water with a little bit of broth or lactose-free milk. We use green-lipped mussel powder as a supplement which also has an enticing smell to it.

Fruits

Feed your dog fruits and vegetables that are rich in water such as watermelon, cucumber, and strawberries.

Tip 2

Avoid human foods high in salt content, or anything else high in salt content. Whereas sodium is integral for many of the body’s functions, it can also speed dehydration and too much can be very bad for a dehydrated dog.

Add treats or cheese to the water bowl. Your dog is forced to swallow some water when fishing for the treat. The smaller the treats the more water your dog will swallow. For more simple tips, click the button below.
