The Dog Blog: April 2023

I DON'T HAVE A PHOTO OF A DOG DRINKING.

TONIGHT, I WENT into the kitchen and immediately noticed that Dixie's water bowl was bone dry. I had some bottles of tap water nearby for the emergency and partially filled her bowl.

Dixie heard the water rattling in her empty bowl and immediately came around the corner from where she was sleeping. She hurried to the bowl and drank and drank and drank (must have been TWO quarts low).

I refilled the bottle from the tap, then added a little more to her bowl for later. Don't want her to run out again.
