Rio, our 79 day old toy poodle, isn’t drinking water freely. I have to add some curd or curd whey (or soaked kibble at meal time) for him to have water. I got a water fountain and he didn’t take to it. Are there alternate liquids I can try or some other mixer into water?

Hi Jaishankar. Pets below 3-4 months of age don’t really like water but you can try flavouring his water by adding little amount of chicken or mutton broth/ice cubes. Soak dry kibbles in water well in advance or add wet gravy to it. Include high moiusture content foods.

You can also give butter milk/curd/tender coconut.

Last summer was very hot, and for this summer I want to buy an air cooler for my pup. Any recommendations. Mornings/afternoon she's inside with ac, but nights she sleeps in her crate. I bought a local assembled cooler, but that doesn't work very well. So want to get a decent one. Thanks
