So I've lost mummy points tonight..... I usually change Bella's water 2-3 times a day. She's back on kibble so drinking more..She just went into the kitchen and started barking ... Came back to me , sat nicely , I asked her what she wanted. Few minutes late, back to kitchen, barking again, I went to see, she was barking at the empty water bowl!!!!! Filled her bowl up again ( hadn't realised it was empty!!) and she drank most of it!! Bad mummy, but good girl Bella for the alert!! ;D
Re: Barking for water!!! That's great she knows how to alert you AND sit nicely I took Seren's water bowl out of its holder the other day so he could have access to it in another room, and for some reason he started to play bow and bark at it as if it was a toy. Pretty cute :

Re: Barking for water!!! When Izzy had a stainless steel waterbowl, she would tip it up and bring it to me. I changed it to a heavy ceramic one, and now she can't!
Re: Barking for water!!! My mums puppy brings you the bowl when it's empty...she's only 14 weeks old!! She tried it once when it still had a bit of water in and the other dog was drinking from it - just pulled it right out from under her nose, tipped the water out and proudly trotted around with it!
Re: Barking for water!!! Charlie is two, and unless his water is in a cast iron bowl with a brick in it, he tips up the bowl and delivers it to me after every drink. Love my dog...and my mop...
Re: Barking for water!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D we have a wide and shallow bowl that NEVER EVER has more than about 16 ounces in it...because Bella loves to dump it. : : : She carries around her food bowl too....but there's never anything IN it to spill... :
Re: Barking for water!!! She never messes with her water Bowl but likes to carry her empty food bowl around sometimes , she used to be a lot worse with it , throwing it around, but has calmed down. They are still puppy bowls though , so a lot lighter ;D
Re: Barking for water!!! I've just changed to one of those big ceramic bowls as Obi kept upending the metal bowl (with his feet mostly, he doesn't pick it up) :
