Another thing you can try - now that he may have an aversion to the bottle after a face squirt - is a little ziploc baggie to pool water for him. If you fold the "lock" portion of the bag over to give it more structure and use your hands to help cup the baggie, this works pretty well and isn't as bulky as the collapsible bowls. I'll also take ice cubes for my pups and feed them these periodically. It isn't great for space saving, but a nice cool down for them on really hot days. And when the cubes melt, you have icy cold water for them already in a ziploc. Good luck and keep enjoying that pup! They're the best companions we could ask for.Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09438984282733412462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380717288501298504.post-59811634021421098082009-06-14T11:14:43.490-06:002009-06-14T11:14:43.490-06:00Tried the bottle today, but accidentally squirted ...Tried the bottle today, but accidentally squirted him in the face. Now, he is VERY anti-bottle. We'll keep trying things to see what works.

Sonja's ok at this. You can always take the lid off and drink yourself from the bottle.Dannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02201053516148787578noreply@blogger.com
