So about a week and a half ago we started Barkley on a diet (the vet said fatboy needed to lose some weight!). We had been feeding him 1 cup of Fromm in the morning and 1 Stella and Chewy frozen patty at night. So now we are feeding half a stella and chewy patty in the morning and half at night and supplementing with half a cup of veggies.
I noticed that since we changed his diet I don't think he is drinking ANY water out of his water bowl! I've heard when you feed them wet or raw food they may not drink as much since there is more moisture. I also add water to his food and he gets a few ice cubes during the day.
Is this anything I need to be worried about?? I really don't think he's drinking any out of his water bowl...I've still been emptying it and cleaning it everyday and it always seems to have the same amount as when I fill it up. Would the patties, veggies and water mixed in the meals be enough for him to make him not thirsty in between meals?
Thanks for any advice!
