Our dog Sheero has reduced his water consumption in last few days leading to change in pre color. He is otherwise playful, jovial and eating properly? Any suggestions on how we can increase his water content?

Make sure water is accessible keeping lot of bowls around your home and change it often , always keep fresh and clean water, You can offer chicken broth or bone broth, add wet food to their diet..If u r feeding kibble, add water and let it soak a couple of minutes..

Some dogs are not interestef in drinking watet, but love licking ice cubes..you can provide ice cubes when the weather is hot..

Lack of physical activity, if your pet is not getting enough excercise...could make them drink less water..

Consider an appointment with your vet if your dog absolutely refuses drinking water...Health issues like Failing kidneys or urinary tract infections can cause decrease in thirst..

You can also give lot of cucumbers, warermelons...
