Alex T Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Does you dog leaves puddles of water after drinking from thier bowl? Im constantly mopping up puddles of water after Isis goes for a drink - she seems to find it amusing that she takes a large amount of water in her mouth, walks away from the bowl, opens her mouth and then lets it dribble all over the floor! If were in the same room as her she does it and then just stares at us for a reaction - tried telling her off about it - made no difference! Tried ignoring her thinking shes doing it for a reaction - made no difference! Any ideas on what to try next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siberian_wolf Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Bandit will do that, take a load of water then dribble it all over you! He has recently got into the habit of waiting until I put some fresh water down then he will dig it of the bowl! Little bugger As for getting them stop I wouldn't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex T Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 It must be a husky thing our GSD doesnt do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siberian_wolf Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 bingo dont dribble must b a husky thing I can sort of agree to that. My sisters old staffie / mastiff mix used to be worse for dribbling though it was like watching Hooch from the film "Turner and Hooch" was like watching the start of this clip [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O4NaHaFk8s[/ame] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqwidge Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 See Alex i was going to say its a Husky and GSD thing..as mike's sisters dog (GSD) does it all the time, during the summer especially you have to walk in the kitchen with shoes on and very carefully!

Dunc Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Thsese are supposed to help with this and the variable height allows your dog to feed and eat in comfort, and is recommended to minimise back and neck problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austinville Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Bo must be the exception to the rule - as he's not a 'dripper'. Our problems in that respect come from the lab/rottie cross. He'll flood the kitchen with the excess. OOooooo. (Though we do have the elevated food and water bowls, so that might be the difference.)

Sarah Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 I've been looking at those austinville, and looking at getting them for my two, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austinville Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 This is the one I have: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3307+15+50+3118&pcatid=3118 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 oh that looks good, great that you can store the food underneath as well although I think my two would find a way in and eat the lot!! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austinville Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Bo could care less about more food - he'd rather nap! As for the other one, he's kind of 'simple' -- out of site, out of mind. He's a great watch dog, just a goof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Our Smithy dribbles and with mouth soaking wet comes straight up to the crutch area and nuzzles, nice embarrassing wet patch, thanks. Another thing he does with his water is he puts his paw in and digs, until he's happy then trails more water around the house with soaking wet paws...

MyMukki Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 sigh, Quinn dribbles from both ends.... I do know that putting an absorbent pad under the bowl was a bad idea, apparently LuLu was paper trained at some point... let us know if the height thing works!
