puppie drinking wee
« on: July 21, 2008, 03:44:44 PM »
My puppie Hattie is drinking her wee, There is alway fresh water available for her and she does drink it, but if she has just had a wee then she will ignore the water and drink the wee. When I'm there I throw water onto her wee and this stops her.

Is this normal, any ideas why she is doing this and how to go about stopping. She is 12 weeks old.

i have no idea why they do it but i have caught cassie on occassions having a little sip, she doesnt drink a lot just a little lick then i chase her away. Someone will probably be able to offer an explanation, sorry i couldnt be of more assistance but just to let you know your not alone  :005:

People laugh at me because I'm different, but I laugh at them because they are all the same.
