From the day ruby came home as a puppy she never really liked water to drink. She will only drink a very small amount of it.
This evening for example she had a bowl of water and didnt touch it. Now i usually just leave her. But tonight i just said i would try it and put down some warm water with a little bit of milk in it to colour it. She drank the full bowl of it!!!! im saying to myself now that maybe she hasnt had enough fluids with the last number of weeks. She has some water etc in her food in the line of gravy or water in her potatoes and meat to wet it a bit and she drinks a little water out of the bowl. She wees fine so i presume she is getting enough. i have been told before that milk gives the dogs worms? Is it really a no no or will it not do her any harm. Its not full milk, just a little in the water to colour it??????
