Dogs do not normally have problems when playing with water, in fact some breeds love to play with it, for example labradors or schnauzer, when we talk about the subject we do not mean if they like to drink water (it is more than obvious that they like and need it) We refer to the fear or desire to play with water at some time in their lives. According to some famous psychologists, specialist in animal behavior, some dogs are fearful of water, after conducting an experiment with different breeds of dogs that went into a water pond to visualize which breeds had a greater ability to swim, discovered that some breeds they suffered stress when entering the water, mainly anxiety and this occurred mainly in small races. In addition, psychologists conclude and attribute this type of behavior to traumatic events in these animals with water. Undoubtedly we also conclude that fear, phobia or pleasure to water will depend on the first experiences with it, if a dog relates to water with something pleasant or not dangerous, he will enjoy the water without problems, however if he has had traumatic events he will relate to water as something bad. Do not threaten your pet with water. Do not bathe your dog with cold water, remember they are also cold. If you are going to bathe it for the first time, make sure it is a pleasant and quiet process to relate to the water as something relaxing.

Listen to this dog chirp like a squirrel in anticipation to play with the hose. Too funny! Everyone knows that many dogs like to play with water, especially when the water comes from hoses and faucets. For some strange reason, dogs are very happy to play with water hoses in the garden, it is even almost impossible to prevent some dogs from stopping playing with water. Although not all dogs like to play with water, there are some dogs that even cry when their owners do not let them play with water, it is as if they cannot contain the desire to put their mouths in the water. The dog that appears in this video is a clear example of how inevitable it is for some dogs to want to play with water, since it even cries for its owner to let it play with water. Nobody loves water more than this dog! Dogs have a curious way of drinking. Rather than drinking water, they seem to be bitten and swallowed quickly, splashing everywhere. However, that hectic way of hydrating has an explanation that looks great in slow motion. Dogs curl their tongues and put it in the water by pulling it out just after very quickly. With that gesture they manage to lift a small portion of liquid that they catch by closing the jaw. Repeating that gesture for a few times they manage to drink enough to hydrate. In the amount of water that dogs should drink several factors influence such as weight, race, physical activity, food or ambient temperature. However, to take a clearer reference you can use the weight. The approximate amount of water a dog should drink is 60 milliliters per kilogram of average weight. But this figure is just that, an indicative amount. In winter we can stick to it, since our dogs do not perform so much physical activity or lose so much water. However, in summer it is essential to control the needs of our dog to avoid heat stroke and dehydration. We could determine values of 50 milliliters per kg per day in winter and 80 milliliters per day of water in summer. The lack of hydration of our dog is a very worrying problem. If we suspect that our dog does not drink enough for several days we should go to the veterinarian, since this lack of desire to drink can be a symptom of a more serious disease. Proper hydration of the animal is very important, because the bodies of dogs can lose water quickly, so that their state of health can be damaged very soon if appropriate measures are not taken. Is it dangerous for dogs to drink tap water or hoses? Well it depends on the quality of the water. There are places where tap running water carries a huge amount of chlorine, lime and other additives that, in the long run, can affect the kidneys of our dogs, just like people do. However, there are other areas where tap water is clean and dogs can drink it perfectly. Unfortunately, it is increasingly difficult to find quality public waters that do not affect the delicate organisms of our pets. Although in Spain we have a fairly high quality tap water compared to other countries, there are places where it is better to buy bottled water.
