Thread: End of our rope.

Sorry I did giggle, I know you are at the end of your tether but it just sounds so familiar to coonies all over the world. Our boy actually lies down to drink so gets his whole chin and ruff in the water, he then sits and flicks it out but we use a huge dog bowl that he cant move. They all drink out of cups if left around so they get knocked over, and they all think its fun to sit in the sink and play with whatever water is there. Its a nightmare after they have been bathed for a show!!

How to stop it, I would personally use the smallest bowl possible when out of the house, I am guessing they arent left for that long, so if they tip it out its not much water. Then I would supervise drinking times when in the house, put a big bowl down, watch them drink, when they start to play, take it up and replace with the tiny one. This way they will drink when thirsty and only play with a small amount of water which will soon get boring.

Good luck.
