You shouldn't make your dog drink water. WHen it gets wants it, it will drink it on its own. If your dog goes 2 or 3 days without drinking water you caould put some i a shringe and give it to them but if your dog goes that long without drinking water you should take it to the vet.
Loss of appetite and drinking more water are signs that your dog might be suffering from a kidney problem. Please take him to the vet and have him checked.
Most of the time, two tests are given. One is a urine test where the vet checks the blood and protein present in the urine of the pet. Another is a blood test where the vet checks the BUN and creatinine levels of the dog.
Do not delay, see the vet immediately. Your dog might just be not in the mood to eat but seeing the vet will give you peace of mind that everything is alright.
my dog wont eat or drink she only vomited once and diarehaa once this is day three been giving her pedilite to help keep he hydrated her breath doesnt smell like a dog with the parvo she will get up and run around but then goes back and lays down
Watch the dog and see if it changes in about 30 minutes, If not then take it to the vet ASAP!
mabye he/she doesnt like its food try a diffrent brand or flavor,i had the same issue with my dog changed the brand and flavor and she always eats it now
ITs been 6 days and she just turns her head away
Ive had two bowls of water around the house but shes just not interested
Her food is liquidy and we mix her pills with it
he/she's thirsty!!
Take it to the vet if it has been more than a few days without water.
Your dog should drink water as soon as it is thirsty. If it goes more than 12 hrs. without drinking water, take to a veterinarian. Nothing alive can survive w/o water.
Make sure the puppy has a clean dish, made of stainless steel if possible, in which you have put clean, cold, fresh water. If the dog still does not drink from the bowl, you should contact your vet because it's very unusual for a dog not to drink water. Sometimes you can make dog's water more appealing to them by adding a SMALL amount of chicken or beef broth (very small amount: there is a lot of sodium in broth, which is unhealthy for dogs). It could be the puppy just needs to "learn" that that is his water to drink.
Water. And it should also still be nursing.
If you won't drink the water, you shouldn't let your dog drink it. It could be unhealthy water or poisned water. How will you know! Make sure you give your dog purrified water and no other liquid.
none, your still using water, and the dog could get sick from that, just give him a bowl
because they're born with the knowledge of knowing they if they do drink the water after eating rice and chicken they will explode. which obviously they dont want to do. so they wait until its gone through the digestive system (they can feel where their food is when its digesting) so when its safe they'll drink water :)
A dog owner drinks water out of the tap. Regular water.
throw it in the bath.
No! Stick to water.
Yes, so only give your dog fresh, clean water to drink.
only if u put a scent what the dog likes in it
