I highly recommend purchasing a water fountain! I have one for my dogs and cats, and they love it. They are easy to clean, and have filters to help keep the water clean. Plus they hold lots of water, so you don't have to fill it up daily. There are many differing types of water fountains, and I will put a link below to a number of different ones. I have the DogIt drinking fountain for my pets, and it's listed in the website below as one of the best of 2015. I hope this helps :-) https://www.ezvid.com/top-ten-dog-water-fountains

You are very welcome. In dogs we don't see this issue so much with water intake. Cats are usually always problematic to get adequate water into their system. Therefore your dog can have either wet or dry based on preference of the pet and yourself. I feel that giving half dry and half wet to cats is certainly better than no wet at all. Plus I can certainly understand that this may be more a cost effective way to care for your pet. If you also implement the placement of water fountains in your home, then this has shown to encourage cats to drink more because it is considered a fresher water source. I honestly have never heard of the special bowls made just for spaniels. That is a great idea and as long as your pets drink from it, then I say mission accomplished! It is, after all, still just a water fountain. I can certainly understand not wanting to continue to use a fountain which gets a daily dip from your pets ears. This certainly isn't the most sanitary way to get your d

Hello, and thanks for your question on Boop by Petco. It's great that you're being conscientious about this! I recommend ceramic, glass, or stainless steel bowls. They tend to be cleaner, and are safe to throw in a dishwasher cycle now and then. I'd specifically avoid plastic. Hope that helps!

You are very welcome. Sorry for the late reply I have been off for a few days. Honestly I find that dogs drink water irregardless of bowl or fountain. Do you what you feel is best for your pooch and you will be fine either way. Take care. : )

A healthy dog will generally drink as much body as it's body needs as long as it has access to clean fresh water at all times. Since you are giving water with the food, it's possible this is meeting all her body's water needs. Certainly continuing to put water in her food is fine and is encouraged if she is not a good drinker on her own. You may also see if she will drink more readily out of a pet water fountain. You may also try different water bowels or change the location of the bowels. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
