Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Cato literally splashes around int. it's almost digging even! I think it's adorable but, I do not like having the puddles everywhere.

Have you ever experienced this?

Ghost did that in the dish in the house for the longest time, and will still dip her paw in from time to time. At the dog park, it's game over. I can't keep that dog out of the water dishes/buckets to save my life...

All we could do honestly was keep a towel by the water dish, because nothing we did got her to stop.

Well of course he's crazy, he's a Husky. But no, the water thing doesn't make him extra special crazy Razz

I ended up buying a weighed, two-sided, ugly plastic bowl for food on one side and water on the other, because Sabaka would pick up his full water bowl and drag it through the house when he was a puppy. He would also dig in the bowl OR even dig in the puddles of water left on the floor! He would have water everywhere! He eventually outgrew it or at least stopped doing it. He has now "earned" his big-boy bowls back! Wink

Our guy does that after he comes in from outside. He'll put his nose in it and shake his head; it's hilarious! He must have to clean his nose after sticking it in the lawn and in the dirt to clean it out. And yes, puddles everywhere!

Ours don't do that with the bowls they have upstairs, but the bowl downstairs (one with the 2.5 gallon jug on top) needs a paw in it sometimes, just to make sure it's still water. I'm not sure why they feel like they need to check it before they drink from it, but they do.

Luckily they won't do it when it's full, but if their water dish runs dry, Isis will grab it, take it to the living room, and throw it up in the air over and over until we get the hint and re-fill it.
