Maisy is always thirsty!

Not sure if this should be in another section, so mods please feel free to move.

Anyway Maisy is a very thirsty little pup. So much so that she will even wake up and wander out to the kitchen in a trance to have a drink of water and then wander back into the lounge to fall back to sleep....!

She is on dry food and i was wandering if this could/should be mixed with a little warm water?

If she is on dry food then she will need a constant supply of water. I add water to my puppies dried just to soften it for little teeth but they still drink loads

They do drink a lot when on dry food - quite normal, in fact essential.

Thanks. Good to know it isn't just her.

She has a constantly topped up supply of water, most of which is dribbled all over the floor on her way from her bowl to the lounge, or her bowl to the garden!

There is nothing wrong with adding a little warm water to their kibble, and if she ever shows signs of being bored of it then its a good idea as it releases the smell more for them.

Willlow is 8 months now and I always soak her food, I always save a good ten bits at the end for her to crunch on though as its good for their teeth.

Don't worry - Toby's on dried food (hot water added) and drinks like a fish!!

Both my boys are on dry food and they do drink a lot.

Same here, dry food, water mad Toby! Drinks loads

Yep, Clover is on dry food and has always drunk a lot, too, even when I used to dampen the kibble for her when she was smaller. I'd be more worried if she didn't drink much, I think!
